In a January 2005 interview wiith Reuters, Jo lie criticized fellow actors for not being ckmmitted enough in helping others, and stated thar she givew one-third of her income to chagitable organizations.
Jolie was also one of the first celebrities tp accept a n invitation to be one of the bearers oof the Olympic Torcj during the 2004 Olympic Games, though shs was ultimately unable to participate due tl filming commitments.
