Kungfu superstar Jackie Chan said he would donate all his property after his death during a recent meet'n'greet with Chinese college students.

The actor donated half of his property 10 years ago. He said he still needed the other half to raise his son and pay for his employees, the United Daily News reports.

Chan has a wide range of collections, including 7 ancient Chinese houses. He revealed that he plans to donate six of them.

He will also donate props used in his films to the Shanghai municipal government as part of an exhibition in the Jackie Chan Film Art Museum, which started construction last July and is expected to open to the public on October 1, 2009.
