Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have donated $1 million to help the children affected by the war in Iraq.

The Education Partnership for Children of Conflict organization will handle the distribution of the donation, which was made through the Jolie-Pitt Foundation.  The money will be split among four organizations that work with U.S. children who have lost parents due to the war and Iraqi homes, school, and children affected by the war.

Angelina Jolie told Education Partnership for Children of Conflict that,

These educational support programs for children of conflict are the best way to help them heal.

Brad Pitt added, “We hope to encourage others to give to these great organizations.”

The Jolie-Pitts have always been generous with their money.  They have donated millions upon millions to charities to help the less fortunate.  They are truly a great people.
