Sandra Bullock said Friday she donated $1 million toward Haitian earthquake relief, and Madonna announced she gave $250,000 toward the effort as celebrity aid continued to pour into the devastated country.
Bullock's contribution went to Doctors Without Borders' emergency operations in Port-Au-Prince, where three of the organization's existing facilities were damaged by the magnitude 7.0 quake.
"I wanted to ensure that my donation would be used immediately to meet the needs of the Haitian people affected by this catastrophic event," said Bullock in a statement.
Madonna's gift was to Partners In Health, a longtime medical provider in Haiti.
"I urge all of my friends and fans around the world to join me collectively to match my contribution or give in any way you can," she said. "We must act now."
Earlier Friday, Not On Our Watch, an advocacy and grant making group founded by George Clooney, Brad Pitt and others, donated $1 million to Partners in Health.

Dog saves amputee owner from icy death

A New Whiteland, Indiana man confined to a wheelchair says he owes his life to the same dog he once rescued.
Don Fisher rescued Auggie, a golden retriever mix, from a local shelter nearly a year-and-a-half ago.
Auggie and his litter had been abandoned.
"Threw him in a dumpster. Him and his brothers and sisters," explained Fisher.
Last week Auggie returned the favor when Fisher says the dog saved his life.
Fisher is confined to a wheelchair after his legs were amputated for diabetes.
The 75-year-old went outside in his wheelchair early Friday morning to get the paper.
Auggie, as he usually does, followed.
When Fisher tried to turn around, he realized his wheelchair was stuck in the snow.
Fisher was stuck outside in freezing cold temperatures with no protection other than a sweatshirt and sweat pants.
"I was stuck. I was hopelessly stuck," Fisher said. "Anybody wonders where the end's going to come and I thought that would be it. I was in total despair."
Fisher said he knew he had only one shot at help: Auggie.
"He looked at the chair and he looked at me and I said, 'Go get Mark'," Fisher recalled. "I saw that was my only chance and I said, 'Go' and he went. He's never done anything like that in his life."
Fisher's son Mark was asleep inside, but Auggie woke him up.
"He barked at me a couple times, which is something Auggie doesn't do," Mark Fisher said. "For him to bark at me was an indication that something was wrong."
Then Auggie ran to the door and came back to Mark, still barking.
"He was very agitated, very antsy, that I needed to get up," said Mark.
Auggie never stopped until Mark finally followed him outside and found his dad stuck in the snow.
"Without a doubt he saved my life. There's no question at all and I think he'd do it again," said Fisher.
It didn't take long for Auggie's rescue story to get around the neighborhood.
Someone even sent him this tag that says "Hero."
"You're eating this up, aren't you big boy?" Fisher asked Auggie.
As for eating, these days, Auggie gets whatever he wants.
"As soon as we can find one, he's getting a big ham with a bone in it. That's for sure," said Fisher.
He says it's the least he can do for a dog that's more than earned the title "Man's Best Friend."

Fake $500 Tip

A generous tip to a hotel chamber maid proved a costly mistake for a Lebanese man after it led to him being caught with $66m of fake currency.
The man gave the woman a US $500 bill - a denomination last printed in 1945 and only in very limited circulation.
Police in Malaysia were called after the housekeeper found the note was a fake when she tried to change it to local currency at a bureau de change.
When officers arrested the man they found fake currency with a face value of $66m in bundles of $1m, $100,000 and $500 notes in his Kuala Lumpar hotel room.
The man now faces up to 10 years jail if convicted of possessing counterfeit currency.
The largest denomination of US currency ever printed by the US Treasury Department was a special edition one for $100,000 in 1934.
The largest US note currently in wide circulation is a $100 bill.
