Charlize Theron hosted a star-studded fundraiser for her Africa Outreach Project in NYC.
"I feel like it’s the right thing to do,” the actress and South Africa native said of her continued commitment to the cause. Among its efforts, the organization aims to provide education and resources for young people living with HIV and AIDs, 85 percent of whom live in sub-Saharan Africa.
“It’s obviously where I’m from, and I’ve been personally really affected by the unnecessary suffering that a lot of people of my country have faced, and still face, because of something that is completely preventable. I don’t know how to disconnect from that; it’s just a part of me. I always knew that if I was ever fortunate enough to give ba back in a big way, it’d be South Africa,” she added. “It was a no brainer for me.”
