Jolie, Pitt give $1M to war-affected kids

LOS ANGELES (UPI) -- A foundation started by Hollywood film stars Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt has donated $1 million to children impacted by the war in Iraq.

Usmagazine.com said the Jolie-Pitt Foundation has pledged $500,000 for school supplies and education programs for refugee children in Iraq, as well as $500,000 for U.S. children who have either lost a parent deployed in Iraq or have a parent serving there.

The donations for U.S. children will go to a tutoring initiative at the Armed Services YMCA Operation Hero Program, the entertainment news Web site said.

Jolie, who is pregnant with her and Pitt's fifth and sixth children, is a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees
