Brad
Pitt and Angelina
Jolie have jointly announced a $2 million
dollar donation to Global Action For Children.
The former Tomb
Raider actress - a stoic supporter of poverty
eradication - has also donated cash to supplement
supplies used while giving birth to daughter Shiloh
in Namibia.
"In the
most troubled parts of the world - places that
much of the world has abandoned, MSF is always
there," Jolie said in a statement Wednesday. "I
have seen these brave men and women working in
war zones and horrific conditions and I deeply
admire them."
"Angelina
Jolie and Brad Pitt not only care, but more important,
are taking concrete action to address the fact
that there will be 20 million children orphaned
by AIDS by 2010, and millions more orphaned by
tuberculosis, malaria and conflict or whose parents
are sick and dying," said Jennifer Delaney, U.S.
director for Global Action For Children.
