 Imagine the people in the world that don't have food, water, shelter, or even a family. What if you had a chance to help them? Would you take it or leave it? My hero Angelina Jolie took her chance and she loves helping!

 Jolie was born June 4, 1975 in Los Angeles, CA. Her mom Marcheline Bertrand and dad Jon Voight got married on December 12, 1971. Her mom died January 27, 2007. She married Brad Pitt on August 2014, and has 3 biological and 3 adopted children named Shiloh, Knox, Vivienne, Madox, Zahara, and Pax.

 A few of Jolie's struggles growing up was not being very close to her father because there was family trouble between him and her mother. Angelina did once try to be a model, but for some reason she wasn't good at it. As I mentioned before, her mother died, which did affect Jolie and cause pain. As you can see the struggles Angelina faced didn't stop her from following her dreams, and I personally think her mother's death inspired her to help others.

 My favorite accomplishment of Jolie's is her helping and taking care of the less fortunate/refuges by giving them food, adopting children, and etc. She is always willing to give money that she earns to them. Another huge accomplishment of hers is she is a famous actress as you probably know already. 

 What I think makes her a hero is she is a famous person that doesn't just care of themselves and how they look, but of others and how they are taken care of and treated. Her heart only focuses on kindness. The characteristics that she shows are good examples of what a leader and good role model should have.

 

 

  Angelina Jolie shows heroic bravery by helping others and taking risks for them. She accomplishes many things that help others and our community. She is not a hero just to me, but a hero to many people in the world.
