Goodwill ambassador and Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie is headed down to Haiti to talk to survivors and see what she can do to help. Angelina has been involved in many humanitarian efforts around the world and this is just one more in her hectic schedule. She said she got involved with becoming a goodwill ambassador when she was traveling around the world for her career but still couldn't fully understand the countries she was in. She wanted to know how in today's world there could still be so many people living in poverty, "When I read about the 20 million people under the care of UNHCR I wanted to understand how in this day and age that many people could be displaced." .
