Known for their philanthropic ways, Hollywood power-couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie decided to spread some holiday cheer by donating $100,000 to the American SOS Children’s Villages, Gossip Cop reports.
The couple opted to help villages in Florida and Illinois, where their money will aid in providing alternative foster care programs for children around the world, Gossip Cop reports.
“We have seen first-hand the remarkable job SOS does to raise orphaned and abandoned children and keep families together,” Angelina, 34, said in a statement.
