Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have donated $1 million to the U.N. refugee agency providing aid to displaced people in Pakistan.
The head of the agency, António Guterres, thanked the Jolie-Pitt Foundation for the generous donation, calling Pakistan's plight "the most challenging humanitarian crisis of the past decade." (More than 2 million people are currently displaced in the country.)
Since becoming a goodwill ambassador for the agency in 2001, Jolie has visited refugees in Pakistan three times. (She took Pitt with her on a 2005 trip.)
Earlier this week, her beau Pitt created the Pediatric Cancer Center, named after his mother, in his hometown of Springfield, Mo.
