Hello everyone, here the SimplyBrad.com admin speaking. I apologise for the small neglect on this website. Been busy with real life and that just comes first. Don’t worry: this is not the beginning of the end. I am still updated on all the pictures and appearances of Brad as far as I know. Today and tomorrow I will be cleaning up this large site. Content updates etc. Thank you for your understanding. Now let’s update

Brad Pitt’s brother, Doug Pitt, is climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro in an effort to bring safe drinking water to African communities. Philanthropy apparently runs in the family. Doug Pitt – a photojournalist, father of three and Brad Pitt”s brother – is on Day 4 of a climb up Africa’s highest peak, Mt. Kilimanjaro. It’s part of an effort to bring clean, safe drinking water to African communities.

Pitt blogged on Sunday: “After an early wake-up call of 5:45 a.m. the team walked more than nine miles reaching an elevation of 14,800-feet for lunch. The pace has slowed to make sure that everyone’s bodies adjust to the new altitudes, but spirits are still high despite cold temperatures and frequent rain.”

Generous Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have donated $2 million to the African wildlife sanctuary where they spent Christmas with their kids.

The superstar couple’s Jolie-Pitt Foundation has made the donation to the Naankuse Wildlife Sanctuary in Namibia to help its efforts to protect animals and improve the lives of local people.

The couple, whose daughter Shiloh was born in Namibia, are close friends of the directors and founders of Naankuse, Rudie and Marlice van Vuuren.

The donation to the Naankuse Mission project is being made in Shiloh’s name.

Angelina said: ‘We want her to be very involved and grow up with the understanding of her country of birth. “We have known Rudie and Marlice for many years and continue to be impressed by their hard work and dedication to the people and conservation of the land and wildlife of Namibia.”

Brad and Angelina and their six children spent a week at the sanctuary over the festive period.
