11/06/09

NBC’s Nightly News with Brian Williams “Making A Difference” segment is scheduled to feature Jon Bon Jovi on Monday, November 9th, 2009. The interview was conducted at the Genesis apartments in Newark, NJ. The NBC film crew captured footage from several of the Jon Bon Jovi Soul Foundation projects in Philadelphia and Camden, NJ.

The projects, an affordable housing homeownership partnership and two volunteer opportunities: a lot stabilization program and a playground build, which may be featured on the show, were made possible due to the generous donations of our many supporters and all the individuals who have volunteered their time. We thank you for your continued support.

Please watch the special on NBC Nightly News to see how your donations have benefited the lives of those in need. We thank you for your donations and encourage you to volunteer your time to help others in your community.

    Hi Fans,

    Bon Jovi is being criticized by fans for setting high ticket prices which range from £45 for general admission seats to £1,299 for platinum tickets in London. Here in North America they are as bad from $225 to $1,875 (from TicketMaster.com). Do they not notice the economic times? After all, do they want us, the fans, in the audience to sing along to 'Livin on a Prayer', or executive suits who don't know the words? My wife & I have been fans since Runaway & In & Out of Love, and have seen every concert in Toronto (5 times on the Lost Highways tour) ...

    Lets Speak Up!

    I just bought the DVD "Pay it Forward" last week for a friend to watch. I beleive that the Holy Spirit of God is trying to tell us to help people up by our kindness, not just by our wallet. Even though the movie was fiction but inspiring... now it has turned real. Jon just started with just a great idea and so simple. Hand out are out but Hand Ups are IN. God Bless and Amen to Jon Bon Jovi great sense of how the world can work better. Many CEO and Government Officals should take a look at what "WE" can do together to be good stewards starting with our own town and grow.

    To the JBJ Soul Foundation, It is wonderful what you are doing for the state of NJ. People don't realize how many people are homeless. In Indiana the average age of a homeless person is 9 years old. It is great to see other Foundations making a difference. Keep up the great work.

    AMEN!!! I am so glad that you are doing this. How can we all help in our areas. This is what everyone in the US needs to be working towards. Ask yourself this: could you help one person or maybe two? with a couple of meals or housing? This is the best news I have heard in a long time! Way to Go - God Bless Jon Bon Jovi Soul Foundation ministry! This is the whole package - not just a band aid! Way to think it through.
