MADONNA GIVES MILLIONS TO KABBALAH
MADONNA has proved her devotion to Kabbalah - she donated more than $2.6 million (£1.8 million) to the religion in 2007.
The Material Girl showed her generosity by giving away $3.1 million (£2.1 million), the bulk of which went to the Kabbalah Centre in Los Angeles - a steep rise from the $250,000 (£172,000) she donated in 2006.
Tax papers for the singer’s Ray of Light Foundation for the year 2007 show she also handed out $250,000 (£172,000) to Mobilization Against AIDS, $15,000 (£10,000) to the TJ Martell Foundation for Leukemia and Cancer Research, and smaller donations to All Saints Church in Pasadena, California, as well as several health groups.
She also gave almost $23,000 (£16,000) to an organisation that sets up playgrounds in Russia - but there was reportedly no listing of any donation to charities in Malawi, the African republic from which she adopted son David Banda in 2006.
