Jolie-Pitt Foundation aids Pakistan refugees

The Jolie-Pitt Foundation has pledged $1 million in an effort to aid refugees in Pakistan, according to reports.

The organisation works in tandem with the United Nations Refugee Agency, while the contribution will be utilised for millions of people in the region driven out of their homes by the Taliban, says E!.

Jolie, a Refugees Goodwill Ambassador, has visited the country several times.

Earlier this week, the celebrity couple donated $1 million to a hospital in Missouri, in which an endowment fund was established to aid children’s cancer research. A new unit will be named the Jane Pitt Pediatric Cancer Centre, in honour of the actor's mother.
