Salma, 42, fed the baby boy while visiting a hospital with the charity, because his own mother had stopped producing milk, and the moment was captured on camera and aired on US television on ABC.
Salma said: "The baby was perfectly healthy, but the mother didn't have milk.
"He was very hungry. I was weaning my daughter Valentina, but I still had a lot of milk that I was pumping, so I breastfed the baby.
"When he felt the nourishment, he immediately stopped crying. It was amazing because he's really looking at me and he's very little. My baby is one year so she can suck a lot harder."
The Oscar-nominated actress feels her own daughter would be proud of her to have shown such generosity.
