Kristof is also working on the documentary and in a recent Tweet the actress said "Spent the day in Kibera slum in Nairobi, Kenya, with the strong women of the Jamii Bora micro financing org. My mind is officially blown." After she had met with the inspirational organisation which seeks to eliminate poverty.
