Brad Pitt attended a news conference in New Orleans yesterday to announce a project to build affordable, environmentally friendly and stylish homes in the area devastated by Hurricane Katrina.

Angelina Jolie and Maddox Jolie-Pitt were also in town Ninth Ward support of Daddy Pitt.

The family visited the ravaged Ninth Ward where Brad plans to give back to the city by building 150 homes to house families displaced by the disaster, costing around $150,000 each to construct.

The Jolie-Pitts have already donated $5 million of their own cash to the project - and now they need you!

Brad spoke to the Today show live from the site yesterday - surrounded by pink tents marking where the homes will eventually be.
