Brady's African relief efforts spur dedication already matched on field
We know about some of Brady's local Charity work. Very good article from CBSsportsline about work Brady is doing in Africa.

This year is the fifth anniversary of that first trip to Africa and quietly, without anyone knowing, it began to slowly change Brady. He is still the football-driven, maniacal future Hall of Famer who might be the best quarterback in history. The man on the magazine covers. One of the most visible faces in all of sports.
Yet that trip also led Brady to expand his knowledge about Africa and other impoverished areas. The pursuit of that knowledge and his contributions to stopping some of the senselessness never ceased as he has quietly donated money and time to these causes. Brady won't say exactly what he does, but his sister just got back from Africa after a three-month stay. Brady plans to go back one day as soon as he can.

We are lucky fans to have a 'face of the franchise' who is such a centered person.

We just have to try to evaluate them the best we can."
