Angelina Jolie has donated an undisclosed sum to a charity lemonade stand run by two British children
The British schoolboys -- six-year-olds Ayaan Moosa and Mikaeel Ishaa from east London -- are best friends and set up the stand to raise funds for charity in July after learning about the crisis.
Jolie also sent the children a letter, which they shared on Instagram, thanking them for their efforts and apologizing that she could not be there in person to buy their lemonade.
"She's been so amazing. It's surreal -- she's not just a random star, you're talking about one of the top names on the planet so it's a bit overwhelming," Moosa said. "She's phenomenal.
In a video in Instagram, the children thanked the actress. "Hi Angelina, I'm Ayaan. And I'm Mikaeel. And we're the LemonAid boys. We just wanted to say thank you for donating to our cause," they said in the video. They added they'd be happy to sell her a glass of lemonade next time she was in London.
Jolie, who is a Special Envoy for UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, has previously spoken out about conflict and poverty in the Middle Eastern country, which has been beset by civil unrest for decades.
