Angelina Jolie Stands Up For Refugees


Angelina Jolie had yet another busy day today. The Lara Croft actress was doing her best to pitch in, as she attended an important and highly publicized meeting in NYC.

The press conference was held with United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, Antonio Guteres, as the two spoke about a new campaign, Nine Million, aimed at improving education for refugee children around the world.

And while Ang was at the UN, her partner Brad Pitt was doing his part, as well. The Fight Club stud tossed in $5 million to help build houses in the lower ninth ward of New Orleans.

He spent this morning at the Clinton Global Initiative, asking for more support for his Make It Right program, in which he joined forces with billionaire Steve Bing. The duo plan to rebuild 150 homes destroyed by hurricane Katrina.
