Good for him. He is trying to repair his image, that is a good thing. Most people wouldn't care how the league looked at them after such a case like Kobe's, but Kobe cares and is trying to fix up his image.
I'm glad he is taking the effort to help the community and hopefully clean his image. Kobe is already a good guy, it's sort of sad since he is already a good person, just the fact that all these unfornuate events happened to him.
