Hollywood star Angelina Jolie is reportedly to be a part of a foundation, which is formed by her family to promote cancer education.

The 38-year-old Oscar-winning actress, who underwent a double mastectomy earlier this year, will be involved with the foundation along with her fiance Brad Pitt and other family members, reported Contactmusic.

"Angelina's father Jon Voight will be involved, her brother James (Haven) will be on board. Angelina will help. She and (fiance) Brad Pitt are humanitarians. It's something so close to home," Jolie's uncle, Ron Martin said.

The actress' family is said to be proud of the way she is using her celebrity status to do humanitarian work and raise awareness of good causes.
