Brad Pitt @ Clinton Global Initiative

Wed, 26 September 2007 at 2:31 pm

Brad Pitt speaks before a panel discussion on energy and climate change during the Clinton Global Initiative Annual Meeting Wednesday in New York City. The conference is focused on finding ways to solve some of the world’s most pressing problems including poverty and climate change.

According to People, Brad is partnering with billionaire Steve Bing on the “Make it Right” program, which plans to build 150 affordable – and environmentally sustainable – homes in New Orleans’ Lower Ninth Ward. Brad and Bing have each promised to match donations pledged during the initiative up to $5 million.

FYI: It costs $15,000 per person to take part in the panel discussions and smaller working sessions at the CGI. $15K!!!!! I hope it all goes to charity…

Nice to see that Brad is trying to help. It could be nice if more celebreties are doing this.

Go away Brad!!! I bet Ang wrote his speech!!! This guy is such a fraud he morphs into whatever the woman he’s with is into. I don’t even think he knows who he is. If he’s so worried quit driving around in SUV’s, get a hybyrd, quit flying private jets, fly commercial, and donate/adopt poverty stricken American, then I’d be impressed!!!

Obviously he didn’t raise much money from all those rich folks in the Hamptons. When is he going to announce that. I would have thought he would get millions there.

Repost from last thread:

Congrats to Brad & Angelina who are slowly but surely making a name for their foundation with their busy schedules and all.

Having a foundation with both their names on seems more permanent than a marriage certificate would.

Probably the 5 million he’s pretending to give out of his pocket are from the foundraising at the Hamptons.

Thanks, Jared for a new thread. I am glad Brad is standing up for New Orleans. It’s a beautiful city, full of history, and unique for its culture. It’s a part of the American heritage, we need to cherish it, and preserve it for the next generations.

Any contribution helps. I cannot believe that so many children are on line! And yes we know you are children, by the childish and ridiculous comments you post. Shouldn’t you be in school? They do good, give it a rest!

He was probably so excited. Good for him. Can’t wait for Angelina. I can see her wearing a Saint John suit for this.

I bet some of the monies if not all collected from today’s panelists will be part of rebuilding houses for NO people.
