George is reportedly taking a short break from his acting career to join Amal on her mission to save the world. How, you say? They’re changing the lives of thousands –3,000 to be speicfic– of refugees from Syria.

 

The couple’s organization, the Clooney Foundation for Justice, is joining forces with UNICEF and Google to devote $2.25 million toward seven public schools in Lebanon. Computer giant HP is throwing in an additional $1 million technology grant.
