I think very highly of action star Jackie Chan humanitarian work. He is one of the UN ambassador's for UNICEF. Some of the charities he supports are Chrysalis, charities for medical services, disaster relief, youth activies. Chrysalis helps economically disadvantageed including homeless people. Jackie Chan, action star, humanitarian.
He recently was nominated(2011) for the David Chow award. This honor promotes moral values, quality of life and humanity toward everyone.
