Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie donated $340K through their Jolie-Pitt Foundation to the Humanitarian Initiative Just Relief Aid, which helps care for mothers who have been displaced from the war-torn nation Somalia. Mohamed Dahir from the organisation said the money would allow for an expansion of the Badbaado camp in Mogadishu, the capital city of Somalia, which takes in around 300 women and children every day.
Angelina recently thanked Somali refugees for inspiring her and making her a better parent. She said, “I’m so grateful, I don’t want to cry, to the refugee families that I have the honour and privilege to spend the last years with. From them I’ve learned so much. I’ve learned to be a better person, a better mother. They’ve inspired me by showing me the unbreakable strength of the human spirit.”
