Angelina
Jolie and Brad Pitt are donating $2 million to the Namibian sanctuary
where they spent Christmas with their kids, the Associated Press reports.
The
donation to the Naankuse Lodge and Wildlife Sanctuary was made through
the Jolie-Pitt Foundation in the name of their daughter Shiloh, who was
born in Namibia.
In a statement
released Monday, Angelina said We want her to be very involved and grow
up with the understanding of her country of birth.
Angelina said the owners of the sanctuary are old friends. We continue to be impressed by their hard work and dedication to the people and conservation of the land and wildlife of Namibia, she said.
The
family spent Christmas together at the lodge, where staff say the
children helped to feed and care for orphaned baby baboons and foxes and
saw a leopard released back into the wild.
