Jolie-Pitts Donate $2 Million to Create Ethiopian Health Center
The Jolie-Pitt Foundation made a $2 million donation to the Global Health Committee on Saturday to create a center for AIDS- and tuberculosis-affected children in Ethiopia. The center will be named after the couple's daughter Zahara, 3, who was adopted from the African nation in 2005.
"It is our hope when Zahara is older, she will take responsibility of the clinic and continue its mission," Pitt said in a statement announcing the donation.
Ethiopia has the seventh highest rate of tuberculosis in the world and an estimated 1.7 million people who are infected with HIV. The new clinic will be modeled after the Maddox Chivan Children's Center in Cambodia, named after the eldest Jolie-Pitt child and established in 2006.
"Our goal is to transfer the success we have had in Cambodia to Ethiopia, where people are needlessly dying of tuberculosis, a curable disease, and HIV/AIDS, a treatable disease," said Jolie in the statement.
Anne Goldfeld, cofounder of the Global Health Committee, said, "The Jolie-Pitt gift will allow us to deliver care and ease the great suffering caused by TB and AIDS with what we know works right now, while we continue scientific discovery to improve prevention and treatment of these diseases in the future."

Angelina Jolie Loses Critics’ Choice Award but Looks Smokin’ Hot!
Angie and her beau, Brad Pitt, walked the red carpet hand in hand at the prestigious awards show, but it was Angelina who wanted to stop and pose for photographers.
The dynamic duo was running late when they arrived at last night's event, but Angie wanted to make sure she satisfied the photogs.
Angelina, decked out in a black, knee-length dress and matching black trench coat, looked smokin' hot on the red carpet. And her best accessory, Mr. Pitt, didn't look too shabby either.
But, in all the red carpet madness, the poised pair didn't realize that they were holding up the show.
A source said "Angelina and Brad were the last to arrive. Organizers were shouting, ‘The show is starting! Everyone has to come inside now!' But Angelina stopped to pose and answer questions."
Jolie was nominated for Best Actress for her role in A Mighty Heart but lost out to Julie Christie, who took home the award for her role in Away From Her.

According to media reports, the call was short but meant a great deal to both Angie and her father.
Good to see things are going well for someone!
