News&Buzz: Cowboy plays Santa to single moms

Dallas Cowboy Roy Williams surprised single mom Stacey Aldridge with a truckload of new furniture Friday -- part of the outreach by his Safety Net Foundation, CBS 11 News said.

The foundation formed in 2004, prompted by Williams' concerns over his sister's struggles as a single mother. "I said whenever I was in a position to help I would," he told WFAA-TV in Dallas. Since then, the charity has helped out 300 north Texas single moms in need with money and other assistance, including Mother's Day makeovers (below), educational training and health seminars

Check out programs, sign up or donate through Williams' web site. And merry Christmas to Demetrice Sanders and her four sons, who also got new beds for the holidays, too.
