BEIJING, Jan. 4 (Xinhuanet) -- Sandra Bullock, the ˇ°Speedˇ± and ˇ°Miss
Congenialityˇ± actress, has donated $1 million to the American Red Cross
appeal to support relief efforts in countries affected by the earthquake and
subsequent tsunamis in the Indian Ocean.
Bullock contacted the American Red Cross last week, the organization said today.
ˇ°At this critical time, I am grateful to Sandra Bullock for once again
demonstrating her leadership, compassion and belief in our global humanitarian
mission,ˇ± said American Red Cross president and chief executive officer Marsha
Evans in a statement.
ˇ°Sandra continues to enable our lifesaving work and is a model for personal
generosity.ˇ±
It's not the first time for her to give large donations. She also donated
$1 million following the terrorist attacks on the U.S. on September 11,
2001.
Bullock can next be seen in "Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous" where
she will reprise her role of FBI agent Gracie Hart, this time in Las Vegas, for
her next mission.
