Do they ever stop doing good? Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were in Amman, Jordan this week to visit the kids who live at the SOS Children’s Village, which provides a stable family environment for impoverished orphans, many of whom are refugees. The superstar couple had been invited by Her Majesty Queen Noor of Jordan (yes, the Queen!), who started the program. It was Brad’s first visit, but back in 2003, during Angelina’s first trip to the village, she was so moved by the experience that she decided she would cover the entire yearly expenses of one family living there.
