Brangelina's charitable yearBrad Pitt and Angelina Jolie gave away millions during 2008

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie further added to their saintly reputation by giving a massive $6.8 million to good causes in 2008!

The Hollywood couple have already impressed people all over the world
with their charitable ways, but now the Hollywood Reporter claims to
have obtained a 2008 tax return for the Jolie-Pitt Foundation which
reveals that they doubled their donations from 2007.

The biggest recipients of their list was Global Health, which received
$2 million, while the Human Rights Watch got $1 million and Brad's Make
it Right Foundation was handed $1 million to help build eco-friendly
homes for Hurricane Katrina victims in New Orleans.

They also gave $500,000 to the Armed Services YMCA of the US Army,
$50,000 to public schools in Pitt's hometown of Springfield, Missouri
and roughly a million dollars to projects in Cambodia, the country from
which Angelina adopted her first child.

We don't imagine them or their six children suffered too much though -
both Brad and Ang can command one of the highest wages in the biz.
