Actress Angelina Jolie and her partner actor Brad Pitt have donated 100,000 dollars to Direct Change, a non profit organization that raises financial aid for people's projects in Africa.

The amount will be spent for the first medical facility in Duk County, Sudan.

The facility will open in spring this year and will serve 150,000 people and above.

John Dau, the director of Direct Change's Sudan Project said that the people of Sudan are grateful to the celeb couple.

"Words cannot express my gratitude and gratitude of the people of Duk County," E! Online quoted Dau, as saying.

According to Direct Change, Pitt and Jolie learned about the Duk clinic at the Hollywood premiere of the God Grew Tired of Us, which is based on Dau¡¯s memoirs by the same name and executive-produced by Pitt.

Last fall, Jolie set up the Maddox Jolie Project contribute 1.3 million dollars toward forest preservation and poverty mitigation in the northwest region of Cambodia, where Jolie adopted Maddox in 2002.

Pitt and Jolie contribute a huge amount to Namibia after the birth of daughter Shiloh. The funds were used for headed maternity wards in the country's state hospitals.

In early 2007 in India, where Jolie was filming the Daniel Pearl biopic A Mighty Heart, Jolie and Pitt gave 100,000 dollars to the foundation set up in honor of the Wall Street Journal reporter murdered by terrorists in Pakistan.
