Angelina Jolie plans to fund a newly opened girl’s school in Afghanistan
with proceeds of a jewelry line that she helped to design, celebrity
website E! News reported on Monday.
Jolie, a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations High Commissioner
for Refugees, will further fund the girls-only primary school in an area
outside Kabul that has a high refugee population, E! News said in an
exclusive report.
Jolie plans to expand her charitable budget with profits from the “Style
of Jolie” jewelry line that she helped create with jewelry maker to the
stars, Robert Procop.
“Beyond enjoying the artistic satisfaction of designing these jewels, we
are inspired by knowing our work is also serving the mutual goal of
providing for children in need,” Jolie was quoted as saying by E!
Procop’s website said the “first funds from our collaboration together
have been dedicated to the Education Partnership for Children in
Conflict, founded by Jolie.”
