Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are in the news today, not for welcoming their twins (not yet anyway) but for making a huge donation for the Iraq war children.
The Jolie-Pitt Foundation donated $1 million yesterday for educational aid to help children affected by the war in Iraq - in both Iraq and America.
The money will be split evenly between the Iraqi kids (who have had their lives destroyed by the war and have lost parents, homes and schools) and the American kids (whose military parents were killed in Iraq).
Kudos to ya Brangelina! That's why i love ya!

That's $500,000 each. And she makes $20 million per movie (for 3 months work).
So that's a fraction one fiftieth 1/50 of one movie (not counting other movies etc)!
It would be like someone who earns only $20,000 a year giving a $500 donation. Actually even less.
So it seems like a lot, and any giving is great but come on. The truth is that most of us are generous and giving.
