    Ellen DeGeneres will co-host the event, which is set to take place at the Hyatt Regency New Orleans on March 10.

    Speaking about his foundation's results, Pitt tells The Hollywood Reporter, "It's remarkable, and now we want to take what we've learned and expand to other parts of the U.S. and abroad."
