George Clooney Personally Donating $1 Million To Haiti

Very few things offend me more than celebrities who feel the need to announce (or ensure that someone else will "accidentally" announce) that they are giving money to charitable efforts. This is nothing but PR and a tax write-off. Go to Haiti, George. Spend 6 months there with boots on the ground, actually working to help out. No camera crews. No special treatment or protection. Just you.

I think the $1,000,000 will put to much better use than him being there and getting in the way . . . leave the work to trained professionals not actors . . .

Thank you George.
Good man.

I think this is a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation. People get on you if you say how much you give (George, Madonna, etc) and they get on you if you don't say if/how much you gave (Oprah).

Leo DiCaprio also donated a million dollars to the Clinton-Bush Haiti fund.I agree with the damned if you do, damned if you don't comment. I personally think it is fine if the donations are announced.

Big deal, he can afford it. But he had to let the world know didn't he? Couldn't do it quietly.... If he goes over to Haiti and starts getting dirty then I'll pat his back.

Gisele gave $1.5 million to the Red Cross

Yeah, G. Clooney, L. Di Caprio, S. Bullock... gave 1M INDIVIDUALLY, while the Brangelinas gave the same amount TOGETHER! And still they are presented as the most generous...
