After Elvis returned home from the army, he started an annual holiday season custom of contributing funds to Memphis charities. In November 1962, Elvis presented Memphis Mayor Loeb with a $50,000 donation to a combination of Memphis charities. A few days before Christmas in 1963, Elvis was back in the mayor’s office, this time handing over a check for $55,000 to be distributed among 58 local charities. Elvis donated similar amounts to Memphis charities at year’s end in both 1964 and 1965. By 1966, his generosity to the needy in his hometown had doubled to over $100,00. The following religious season, Elvis pledged $10,500 to the Memphis Jewish Community Center Building Fund.

In recognition of Elvis’s many charitable contributions to the city, both Memphis Mayor William Ingram and Tennessee Governor Buford Ellington declared October 29, 1967, “Elvis Presley Day” in the city and state.

• Elvis stood up in the fight against polio

Benefit show for USS Arizona Memorial most remembered

After leaving the army in 1960, Elvis performed live on stage just three times before settling into a Hollywood career through the sixties. All three shows were benefit concerts. The first two concerts were part of a Memphis charity event at Ellis Auditorium on February 25, 1961. Elvis’s afternoon and evening shows brought in a total of $51,612, of which $47,823 was divided among 26 Memphis charities. The remaining $3,789 was set aside for the Elvis Presley Youth Center in Tupelo. A month later, probably Elvis’s most well-known benefit concert was held in Hawaii to raise funds for the USS Arizona Memorial. The show at Honolulu’s Bloch Arena netted $62,000 for the monument in Pearl Harbor. (While in Hawaii in 1965 on location for Paradise, Hawaiian Style, Elvis and Colonel Parker visited the completed memorial to lay a bell-shaped wreath in honor of the servicemen killed aboard the Arizona.)

There were two more benefit shows during Presley’s concert years in the seventies. Elvis’s 1973 worldwide satellite concert at Honolulu’s International Convention Center on January 13-14 benefited the Kui Lee Cancer Fund. No admission was charged but those attending donated over $75,000 to the cancer fund. Finally, on May 5, 1975, Elvis gave a charity concert in Jackson, Mississippi, to benefit victims of a McComb, Mississippi, tornado. After the concert, Elvis presented a check for more than $100,000 to Governor Bill Waller.

One of Elvis Presley’s best friend’s was Mohammad Ali….( Muslim)

Best of Friends…..

The list is endless and was talked out of running for president by Richard Nixon.

The story goes by David Frost that a celebrity could not be President.  ( Actually I think Nixon was afraid he might run).

So when people talk about Trump wanting to be Elvis… not in his dreams.   They both sported the R by the name but that is about all that they had in common other that Vegas, celebrities and well known.   Elvis was much richer in more ways than money.  Elvis grew up poor.  Donald Trump may want to be loved like Elvis but there are not enough tweets in the world to even make people like him but they  loved Elvis.  People around the world at least respected Elvis Presley.  Come to think of it ..Reagan wasn’t any Elvis either.

Scattered throughout Elvis’s career were many other charitable acts, which received little, if any, press coverage at the time. On November 5, 1956, Elvis made a non-performance appearance in Memphis supporting a new driver-education program, and on September 20, 1957, he appeared on Memphis TV to support the same cause. On December 12, 1956, Elvis donated toys to a Marine Corps drive for underprivileged children. The following April he was the first contributor to “Coffee Day for Crippled Children,” a Memphis charity. While in the army in January 1959, Elvis joined fellow soldiers in donating blood to the German Red Cross. In 1965 Frank Sinatra and Barbara Stanwyck thanked Elvis in a special ceremony for his $50,000 donation to the “Motion Picture Relief Fund,” and in 1970 Elvis contributed $7,000 to the Los Angeles Police community relations program. And in May 1971, Elvis gave flowers for Mother's Day to all female employees at the International Hotel in Las Vegas.

Finally, Elvis twice made unusual contributions to the Memphis Zoo. In June 1957 he shipped to the zoo a wallaby he had received as a gift from Australia. Five years later Presley fans in Australia sent him another wallaby, which he also gifted to the Memphis Zoo.

• We’ll never know about all of Elvis’s charitable act

So, there are some celebrities such as Dolly Parton who is helping to rebuild Gatlinburg, and Tom Hanks with his outstanding contributions but dang people, I know Elvis is dead but couldn’t you have found a hero better than a Donald wannabe Elvis Trump?

From the Clarion

Donald Trump is no Elvis Presley. He’s not the one to fill this hero vacuum — or whatever vacuum his supporters are trying to fill, turning to him for a savior who’ll restore to them the hope that anyone can come out of nowhere and get rich and achieve great things — this blue-collar billionaire who says he knows how they feel.

But Donald Trump didn’t come from nowhere. He comes from Manhattan.  He never lived in a shotgun shack. He lives in a dark tower. He didn’t start out in life with a cheap guitar his mama saved up to buy him at a hardware store. He started out with a million dollars.

Donald Trump didn’t get rich. He was born rich. Donald Trump could never sing “Don’t Be Cruel” with anything but sarcasm.

Actually Donald Commander in Tweet… Come to think about it … You ain’t nothing but a hound dog… Crying all the time.
