Before Farrah Fawcett lost her battle with cancer, the brave beauty donated more than $3.3 million to set up her cancer charity, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.
EXCLUSIVE DOCUMENTS: Farrah's Last Wish
Documents filed with the IRS reveal the Charlie's Angels star bequeathed $3,269,169 and $50,000 in two separate contributions to the Farrah Fawcett Foundation.
What's more, famed Hollywood actor Harrison Ford was one of the first to donate to Farrah's cause, handing over a personal check for $5000.
The foundation is a cancer-research group which the actress formed during her own struggle with anal cancer.
Farrah, who detailed her fight in the 2009 documentary Farrah's Story, died at age 62 on June 25, 2009.
According to the filing, the foundation donated $85,000 to two charities last year, including The Angeles Clinic Foundation and St Jude Children's Research Hospital.

Love Farrah. Still hard to think that Farrah is no longer with us. It's great that she set up a charity to help others. I hope one day Redmond will play an active role in her Foundation.
