SCARLETT JOHANSSON - JOHANSSON DONATES CASH TO SRI LANKAN SCHOOL

Actress SCARLETT JOHANSSON has donated "a large sum" to a poverty-stricken school in Sri Lanka after the children there left her overcome with emotion during a recent visit. The 22-year-old travelled to Sri Lanka and India with aid workers from international charity group Oxfam - and admits the highlight was the time she spent with kids at a Dalit school. Johansson tells PlanetGossip.eonline.com, "The most gratifying opportunity was visiting a Dalit school. The Dalit community is considered the lowest status in the caste system, and children as young as four are working the fields." The actress' hand-out will financially support the school for the next three years. Meanwhile, the Lost In Translation star is currently planning a trip to U.S. Army bases overseas with the United Service Organisation (USO). Her publicist says, "It will be in early 2008 and for about a week. I can't give out more than that for security reasons."
