Angelina Jolie is an ambassador to a couple other countries. She has adopted children from all over the world. She cares for impoverished people and lives with them occasionally. She does so much for everyone around her.

She seems to be genuinely caring, but her new move to New Orleans is ill advised. why on earth she’d want to move there now is beyond me….

If you want to get specific about her acting career then I would have to say using her status to in courage other celebrities to contribute… She actually has chosen a movie roles that have to do with helping the the world… ” Beyond Borders” I thought that movie was really sad but its about his women who volunteers with doctors without borders…
Here’s a Link…
She has adopted children and has actually been to Haiti to adapt a child…
Good Luck on your project…

The only thing she is really doing is putting a spotlight on various issues and causes, such as the plight of refugees in certain countries. That is her contribution, and it does help somewhat.
However, having spent a lot of time on the field, living in impoverished environments and assisting those less fortunate with my own two hands, I do feel that her public persona often detracts from the real issues. Hers has become the face of various causes, and the true face (i.e. the poor, starving child, or the homeless family, etc.) is lost amongst the hype. It takes away from the reality of what’s going on, turning it almost into a bit of a circus for the public to enjoy and for Angelina’s ‘image’ to benefit from.

Try Wikipedia, they have tons of information about people. I wouldn’t know, really. I’m uninterested in AJ, but she’s doing it more for the benefit of others. By “others,” I mean the underpriviliged people that she is helping. Angelina could definitely be inspiring others. She’s a learner, an explorer. She travels and she’s including her kids. That’s a good think and through her work, people are getting benefits, and she’s doing good.
