Thursday – June 18, 2009 – 10:06am

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.)
