BREAKING NEWS – Kansas City, Missouri – Brad Pitt’s “Make It Right Foundation” is under fire after its promise to construct 50 new single-family homes in a Kansas City, Missouri, neighborhood has yet to be started. The New Orleans-based nonprofit organization launched in 2007, was to construct affordable and environmentally-sustainable housing for low-income residents of the Lower 9th Ward in New Orleans who lost their homes as a result of Hurricane Katrina. Pitt explained that after all of the millions of dollars were donated, rather than build the homes he promised, he decided to make a movie about his dedication to building the homes. “After giving it a lot of thought”, he explained, “I determined that the people who are depressed over being totally wiped out by Katrina should be ‘entertained’ by watching me in a film, rather than being forced to settle for some ‘run-of-the-mill’ roof over their heads.”.
