NEW YORK: Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have donated $100,000 to the Daniel Pearl Foundation, in memory of the Wall Street Journal reporter who was killed by extremists in 2002.
 
Pitt is producing a big screen adaptation of Pearl's widow Mariane's best-selling book A Mighty Heart, that stars Jolie as Mariane.
 
The couple made the donation through the Jolie-Pitt Foundation on Wednesday, Pearl's 43rd birth anniversary.
 
The couple's representative Trevor Neilson told People magazine, "On this day our thoughts go out to Danny's family. The Daniel Pearl Foundation is celebrating this day, his birthday, with music festivals around the world. The festivals are a great reminder of not just Danny's work as a journalist but of his life and his love of music."
 
The stars arrived in India last week to film the movie, after security concerns prevented them from making it in Pakistan.
 
Pitt and Jolie formed the foundation last month to give away $2 million, to be divided between the Global Action for Children and Doctors Without Borders, to help families affected by HIV/AIDS and extreme poverty.
