FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: March 27, 2008 

Recent reports about the release of 2007 tax filings for Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt highlight the couple’s extensive philanthropy, with more than $8.5 million directed to the Jolie-Pitt Foundation last year. Global Action for Children (GAC) and Doctors Without Borders were the recipients of the two largest grants from the couple in 2007, receiving $1 million each. (Global AIDS Alliance served as GAC’s fiscal agent for the grant at that time. GAC now holds 501(c)(3) status.)
