Despite the rumors of infidelity between Alex Rodriguez and Madonna, it seems like the baseball star is still willing to lend a helping hand. Especially since it'll bring about a ton of press.

Reports state that A-Rod is making a nice donation to Madonna's charity, Raising Malawi.

A source says, "They've asked him for a million dollars, and I hear he's agreed to give at least $500,000."

Considering that he's going to lose a lot of his money and assets during his divorce, we think he should donate a lot more of it away now!

He'll probably make millions in the future, so if you're going to lose millions to an ex, might as well give it to charity first, right?

And A-Rod's been known to have a charitable heart.

He once gave the University of Miami $3.9 million to help build a baseball stadium and didn't even want his name on it.

The director for Raising Malawi would not comment, stating only "Obviously when you're talking about donors, these are private things. I would never reveal information about any donor."

And he added, "We're building a girls' school, which will bring the best resources from around the world with a specific focus on medicine, education and the law. And we don't want a brain drain. We want to develop the leaders of Malawi, who stay in Malawi and help their country."

As for A-Rod's people, they have yet to confirm his half a million donation.

Those involved with the school have denied that the Malawian school would operate with a Kabbalah-base cirriculum.

A rep says, "It will be based on the British system," the same way Madonna's kids were taught.

Reports are also circulating that her Madgesty is preparing to adopt a Malawian girl, though we're skeptical to believe that news yet.
