The funds from the Hollywood actress will be used to provide relief supplies, financial support and technical assistance, the American Red Cross said in a statement.

"Bullock contacted the Red Cross last week to make this, her second million dollar gift, to the American Red Cross," added the statement.

The star of "Speed" and "While You Were Sleeping" also gave one million dollars after the September 11, 2001 attacks on New York and Washington.

"Sandra continues to enable our lifesaving work and is a model for personal generosity," said Marsha J. Evans, the American Red Cross president.
