What I did
Project Hood.org 6625 S. King Dr., Chicago, IL 60637
Tyler Perry surprised everyone Friday morning with generous gift to Pastor Corey B. Brooks of Projecthood.org. One of Pastor Corey Brooks' church members entered him in a contest to win a Harley-Davidson from the Tom Joyner Show. Tom Joyner read the letter to Tyler Perry on the air. The letter detailed the story of Pastor Corey B. Brooks living in a tent for 90 days to change a community and end violence. The goal of projecthood.org was to raise $450,000 for the purchase of the abandoned motel which was once a drug-infested den of pimps and prostitutes.
