Angelina Jolie: She’s an “Angel”

Posted Tuesday February 9, 2010 7:45 PM GMT

Always willing to lend her helping hand, Angelina Jolie has been named an angel by a Haitian charity chief for coming to the earthquake stricken country and continuing to help.

The actress is currently visiting the capital of Port Au Prince where the President of Haiti Children, Suzie Krabacher says, “I think Angelina is an angel for visiting the area and bringing more attention to all the work that still needs to be done in Haiti and I wish her the greatest success.” Krabacher and her husband Joe, started the charity in 1994 to reach to abandoned and mistreated children in the nation, but the earthquake has made it much harder to reach out.

The Krabacher’s organization lost four children and six workers due to the earthquake. Krabacher revealed, “The actual city still smells like a morgue and they are trying to figure out which buildings they can pull-down and which ones can be saved. There is still a great need to bring in food and water throughout Haiti and she will have to be very careful where she is walking because a lot of the buildings are still very unstable.”

Meanwhile, Angelina and Brad Pitt have donated $1 million to the earthquake relief efforts of Haiti.
