Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher are supporting Syrian refugees with a $1 million donation.
Charity officials confirmed the generous contribution on Sunday.
The British actor and his Australian actress wife will be giving $500,000 to Save the Children , the world's leading independent organization for children.
In addition, the same amount will be donated to the International Rescue Committee to help refugees in Syria, particularly women and children with education, health care, shelter and sanitation.
"By allowing us to make their generous donation to Syrian children public, Sacha and Isla are helping highlight the tragedy of the issue today," Justin Forsyth, chief executive of Save the Children, said in a statement.
