JON BON JOVI JOINS BILL CLINTON TO REBUILD DECAYING HOMES

Bill Clinton


Jon Bon Jovi told former President Bill Clinton about a new plan to restore homes in one of Philadelphia's most blighted neighborhoods. Clinton stood beside the rocker in Philadelphia on Thursday as he announced his project, called the Phase V Home ownership Project, to renovate 15 decaying homes, on two blocks on the city's north side. Bon Jovi, co-owner of the Philadelphia Soul of the Arena Football League and creator of the team's charity foundation, teamed up with Habitat for Humanity, the Saturn automobile company and a local charity for the effort. He's been on a philanthropy kick lately. Last year, he and fellow Bon Jovi band mate Richie Sambora surprised Oprah Winfrey with a $1 million donation to her Angel Network and Habitat for Humanity to build 28 homes in the Hurricane Katrina-ravaged town of Houma, La.
