The Jolie-Pitt Foundation, established by Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, is donating $1 million USD to emergency medical operations responding to the 7.3-magnitude earthquake which struck Haiti on Tuesday.  From People:

“It is incredibly horrible to see a catastrophe of this size hit a people who have been suffering from extreme poverty, violence and unrest for so many decades,” says Jolie.

Adds Pitt: “We understand the first response is critical to serve the immediate needs of countless people who are now displaced from their homes, are suffering trauma, and most require urgent care.”

The Jolie-Pitt Foundation is donating the funds to Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontiéres, whose three hospitals in Port-au-Prince were severely damaged, forcing the staff to work out of open-air hospitals.

Meanwhile, the entire Hollywood Foreign Press Association could only be arsed to give $100,000 from their foundation, and it seems they’re doing it mostly just to whore for publicity:

In its statement, the organization said, “The Hollywood Foreign Press Association is announcing at the Golden Globes that the Hollywood Foreign Press Association Foundation is donating $100,000 to Wyclef Jean’s Yele Haiti relief fund for the victims of the Haiti earthquake.”

Ugh.  Gross.  The Hollywood Foreign Press Association is supposedly a non-profit which hosts the Golden Globes every year for the express purpose of raising money for charity, and yet all they can offer an entire country devastated by a massive earthquake is a paltry hundred grand?  Shut the fuck up, Hollywood Foreign Press.  That’s like giving a nickel to a kid with no legs.

Meanwhile, you — yes, YOU — can also donate to Haiti earthquake relief efforts. You’ve got $10, right?  Shut the hell up, yes you do.  Everybody has ten bucks, asshole.  Don’t be such a miser.  Over 1.8 million people lived in the epicenter of that quake, and they need help.

US residents can donate to Doctors Without Borders Haiti Earthquake Response directly through their website, or by calling 1-888-392-0392.  Non-US residents can donate to Doctors Without Borders here.

UNICEF requests donations for relief for children in Haiti via their Haiti Earthquake Fund. You can also call 1-800-4UNICEF.

If you live in the UK, you can call the DEC’s dedicated Haiti Earthquake appeal line which is open 24 hours a day on 0370 6060 900, or go to the website and follow the simple instructions.

If you really don’t have ten bucks, then I bet you’ve got five bucks.  No, seriously, shut up because even bums on park benches have five bucks.  Text “Yele” to 501501 and the $5 charged to your phone bill will be given to relief projects through Wyclef Jean’s Yele Haiti foundation.
