We all know Angelina Jolie as the glamorous star on our movie screen but the other side of her which we all may not know about is that she is a UNHCR goodwill ambassador who has visited Pakistan 4 times since the tragic floods hit.
The UN has made an apeal for flood victims and so far has raised about two-thirds of $459m (£298m) which was asked for in August. Another apeal was made yesterday and the UN has said that it needs $120m (£78m) for tents and other supplies.
Re-building has started but floodwaters continue to threaten the towns of Johi and Dadu in Sindh province which means the progress is slow and teadius.
Last week Ange released a video appealing for more donations on behalf of nearly 21 million people who have been affected by this tragic state of events
She has visited communities where long-term Afghan refugees reside and has described the scene as 'extremely complex to solve'
Being award winning movie star has it's perks, money being the main one. I know that the world likes to see 'stars' looking their best in thousands of dollars worth of diamonds and pearls but what I love to see is when these so called 'stars' remind us that deep down they really do care.
It's nice to see people like Angelina putting their fame to good use and she has personally donated $100,000 to the flood appeal.
Angelina is definately, by my books, a fantastic example moral values.
