People from around the world are doing all they can for the suffering people from Haiti who suffered a catastrophic 7.0 earthquake on Tuesday. Celebrity donations has been flowing in with some being extremely generous.

Power couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have donated one million dollars to the cause. New parents Tom Brady and Giselle Bundchen are pitching in 1.5 million dollars to the Red Cross and Madonna throwing in $250,000 and urges other to follow suit.

Charmed star Alyssa Milano donated $50,000 to UNICEF’s Haitian relief fund and challenged corporations to do the same. Actor and director Tyler Perry gave $250,000 and set up the Tyler Perry foundation for donations here.

There are even rumors that troubled golfer Tiger Woods is chipping in three million dollars! A rep for Tiger’s foundation claims to know nothing about this donation. The news was reported earlier today by Russell Simmons but has yet to be confirmed.

Olivia Wilde attended the 9th Annual DIC InStyle Luncheon held at the Beverly Hills Hotel in Beverly Hills, CA this evening. The House beauty has been keeping busy on her Twitter account trying to spread the word to all her fans to help the people of Haiti who were struck by a 7.0 earthquake on Tuesday.

Wilde went on a relief mission to the impoverished island nation alongside celebrities like Maria Bello and Jimmy Jean-Louis last month. She visited with children at a school just three weeks ago and she worries where her kids are today.

She’s promised to anyone that donates $200 to Artists for Peace and Justice, a personalized thank you message made by her. But any donation of any amount is great.

“Its worse every minute guys, so we are raising the stakes. Those who give $200 or more will get a personal thank you video… THANK YOU for your donation, OF ANY AMOUNT. they are all crucial.

“I swear to you that every dollar is going directly to the Haitians who need it most. THANK YOU.”

Bless Ms. Wilde for her role in helping Haiti during such a critical time.
