Celebrities using their popularity and (HUGE) bank accounts to make the world a better place. Angelina Jolie has just donated U.S $100,000 to help out Syrian refugees. Ange handed over the cheque to the UN Refugee Agency today – being World Refugee Day (June 21st) in the states. Ange said today, "There are still 2.7 million refugees from Afghanistan; 12 million people are stateless. And for the fifth consecutive year the number of forcibly displaced people worldwide exceeded 42 million. The international community should rededicate itself to preventing conflict, addressing it when it erupts, and solving it more quickly, for that is the only way to create durable solutions for the refugees whose strength inspires us on this World Refugee Day. Every individual refugee matters. Each has their own story. Each has suffered and survived more than I could ever bear. And yet, they rise up to live another day." Onya Ange. |
