Before shopping today, Madonna and Stella McCartney spent their second evening together in a row, this time joining Stella's husband, Alasdhair WIllis, and a few other friends for dinner at Assaggi in Notting Hill. Stella has been by Madonna's side in the aftermath of her so far unsuccessful adoption of Malawian Mercy James, but that roadblock hasn't stopped Madonna's philanthropy. Madonna joined the ranks of other members of the fashion industry donating to the victims of the recent earthquake in Italy — the singer herself giving around half a million dollars to those suffering in the region where her ancestors lived.

I think it's awesome that Madonna is donating so much money. The government should follow the example of charitable individuals and increase its foreign aid. The Borgen Project has good info on the estimated cost of ending global poverty:
$30 billion: Annual shortfall to end world hunger.
$550 billion: U.S. Defense budget.
1kudos to Madonna!
2Maybe Madonna should focus on doing more things like this.
3i think that it's nice that she's contributing to the efforts to rebuild italy and to help the folks that are now struggling.
as for the adoption thing, i can understand her frustration and i hope that whatever the outcome - that it's what she wants. she'll get her child..it's just a matter of time i'm sure
