Full article:

Claudio Trotta, promoter) : Phil Collins was an amazing man. He was very keen about helping the homeless, so at every single show he was asking the promoter to find a local contact who was supporting homeless people, because he wanted to donate money, but he did it secretly. I put him in touch with a priest who was doing good work with the homeless, and Phil gave me a cheque for £50,000, and that priest could not believe it. It was a hell of a lot of money.

Phil went through a lot of personal problems, but he is a great human being.
