Leonardo DiCaprio Donates $1 Million to Haiti Relief

Leonardo DiCaprio has donated $1 million to the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund benefiting victims of the Haiti disaster.

Disbursed through the Leonardo DiCaprio Fund, the donation will help by providing both immediate relief and funding long-term development projects.

The Clinton Bush Haiti Fund was created after the Haiti disaster when President Barack Obama asked former presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush to help support those in need.

“Combined with the outpouring of donations from Americans and citizens around the world of all means, this support will go a long way to help save more lives, reach more people with emergency assistance, and help the Haitian people build their nation back stronger and more secure than it was before the earthquake,” President Clinton said.

I’m surprised he made this public. He’s a private a person but I don’t care. He’s giving his own money and let’s face it – he’s Leonardo DiCaprio – he’s an A-lister – he’s got the money, he’s not asking others to donate their money (while he uses his for new clothes) and he doesn’t need to do this to remain relevant in the media. Not to mention he actually does quite a bit of charity work. He just doesn’t feel the need to call E! everytime he does something.

@lexy: who said HE made it public? stuff is always leaked by staff and people who hear gossip/

Sweet Leo – he is so generous. Also, he looks gorgeous here!

DING DING DING – 1 point for Leo. He is a good guy.
Now he just needs to dump his tax evading, military duty shirking, boycotted wannabe fat freckled short bleached out stupid named Israeli wannabe 4th tier model and he will be PERFECT! She is no supermodel hotttie like the great Gisele and Leo looks effing MISERABLE with this user. Gisele also seems like a sweet person with no skeletons in the closet – find another like her.
Also, thank you beautiful Leo for not bringing this loser to the Golden Globes and leaving her home where she belongs.
C’mon Leo come to your senses and break this thing off FOR GOOD!
I wish things would have worked out with Anne V because she seems smart and classy and NOT Israeli! Find someone classy like that Leo!

All A-list celebrities should give big bucks, they can only buy so many houses, cars and private planes.

___________________________________________________

i would agree. however, the operative word here is “donation”. there is no legal requirement for madonna to give more than she is willing to give. nor does she have to. as for moral, given that this is madonna i somehow don’t think she much cares what people think.

That is wonderful and generous. So why is he with such a stingy girl, that not only is a gold-digger, but even evades paying her taxes?
.
Leo deserves a generous woman who is not so obs-essed with fame and a gold-digger.

I love him. He is such a great actor and he has a good heart. He is a true movie star in every sense of the word.
