Ray Lewis Gives Back To Baltimore Children

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- Ray Lewis and the Baltimore Ravens are giving back to Baltimore children.

Jessica Kartalija has more.

Just days before taking on the Pittsburgh Steelers, Lewis spent the afternoon at Chuck E. Cheese with plenty of children in need. He handed out 200 backpacks to students, part of the Ray Lewis Foundation that helps underprivileged kids. Rulers, binders, pens and pencils were in the backpacks.

"There's nothing like going through something and being able to come through it," Lewis said. "That's just love, hope, faith, whatever you want to call it. When you touch one of these kids, you realize why I keep doing this. It's my motivation."

You can see the Ravens take on the Steelers Sunday at 1 p.m. on WJZ.
