Welcome to Young Hollywood. com.

Hey Young Hollywood, I'm Michelle Hummell and I'm here with the very handsome Terrence Howard at the GBK gifting sweets.

Now tell us about your involvement with the St. Bernard project.

Well, um, I met Liz McCartney, who um, founded the St. Bernard project at the CNN Heroes.

Liz ended up being the CNN Hero of the Year for what she did in galvanizing and raising enough money to rebuild over 160 homes in the St. Bernard parish after the flood.

She's done probably equivalent to what FEMA has done with billions of dollars and she was just a school teacher.

What's your involvement?

Well, my involvement is to try and help and lend my name, lend my work, lend my tools.

Me and my brother and my son are going down there to help rebuild some of the homes.

Have you had to pick up any tools and build a house?

Oh, I've been doing that my entire life.

I was raised as a contractor, so.

Have you been able to spend time with people in the community and see how much they appreciate it?

No, I haven't been down there yet, but if my name can bring people to stop there just for a second.

You know, and me being here might be able to help someone look over just a Nike.

But might see something really important, which is you know, what a caring human being can do.

Do you find it difficult being here in Hollywood trying to get people to understand how much help people really need down there or does the message seem to get across pretty clear?

No, people understand, I think.

But often times people feel like, well, what can I really do to help?

You know, and if Liz McCartney had felt like that, you know, then none of those people would be back home.

They would be relocated in another state or another city.

The smallest thing can make the biggest difference in the world.

Well, you've got to remember the widow, you know, that gave the two small coins, the two small drachmas.

Um, even though they were very little value, they were worth more than what everybody else had given because she gave them from her heart.

So even just a wave, even just a phone call, even just a letter to those that's trying to help.

So if you could explain yourself in one word?

Human.

Human.

I love it.

Hey, this is Terrence Howard and thanks for watching Young Hollywood.
