In a statement Jolie said, "It is incredibly horrible to see a catastrophe of this size hit a people who have been suffering from extreme poverty, violence and unrest for so many decades." Pitt added, "We understand the first response is critical to serve the immediate needs of countless people who are now displaced from their homes, are suffering trauma, and most require urgent care."

In another statement the couple said, "We will work closely with our good friend Wyclef Jean to support the humanitarian efforts on the island and help those who have been injured and left without homes and shelter."

Haitian native Wyclef Jean has returned home to focus on his family and his charity Yele, which is providing aid to the nation which so badly needs it. Lance Armstrong has pledged to donate a quarter of a million dollars, stating, "On behalf of Livestrong we'll be donating $250,000 to several organizations that are doing a lot of work down there, one of which is the Clinton Foundation."

Oprah Winfrey, Ellen DeGeneres, Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Adam Lambert and Ben Stiller are among the other stars urging the public to donate money to help the earthquake victims.
