Anne Hathaway's Wedding Pics: Donating Money to Support Gay Marriage

Anne Hathaway's Wedding Pics: Donating Money to Support Gay Marriage

Anne Hathaway is putting her money where her mouth is.

The newlywed has long been an advocate for LGBT rights. And now, the 29-year-old actress is donating a portion of the sales from her wedding pictures to nonprofits advocating for marriage for same-sex couples, according to FreedomToMarry.Org.

Hathaway will also reportedly donate some of the profits to the American Cancer Society, St. Jude Children's Research and The Girl Effect.

The Les Misérables star and her husband worked with Freedom to Marry's National Engagement Party, helping to raise $500,000 for the Win More States Fund. (Proceeds were strategically channeled into the four states—Maine, Maryland, Minnesota and Washington—where marriage is on the ballot this Election Day.)

It was a great thing for her to do. Alot of big celebs just pocket the money they get for exclusive rights to wedding & baby photos.

Good for Anne

She is doing great job by donating money, it shows her genuine attitude towards same sex marriages. I really like that and would like to appreciate that thing . Doing charity is always good job.
