Angelina Jolie urge more donations for orphans
Angelina Jolie appeared at a press conference in Washington, D.C., on Thursday to announce the launch of Global Action for Children, a group that raises money for orphans in developing countries. She has adopted three children.
At the event, she said "I am here to simply ask you to think about orphaned children not as a burden but as a great opportunity.Their education is an investment in our future. ... They have had to work very, very hard to survive, but when they are given a chance, they grow strong, stronger than most. ... The Lost Boys of Sudan are a great example."
