Earlier this year in March, the actress opened up about the nonprofit during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
While reflecting on ‘meaningful or inspiring moments’ with CTAOP, she said, ‘This is the great thing. It’s constantly there. It’s sometimes just in one person, but that’s the thing that kind of keeps you going.’

‘Change is slow, and you have to understand the ripple effect of changing one person’s life,’ she continued. ‘But I would say we just recently launched a higher education youth scholarship, and we are having our first graduates.’
‘And I think that is just really incredible to remember a lot of these students when they were 14, 15, and now they’re graduates…’
Charlize added, ‘And they’re going back into their communities, and they’re bringing all of that education, that knowledge, to serve their communities.’
The Monster actress later said, ‘That’s what’s so inspiring, because they have been through tremendous turmoil and loss and definitely have not had the easiest lives, and yet they’re so incredibly optimistic.’
And earlier this month, she talked to The Hollywood Reporter about her role with CTAOP and explained, ‘The word charity just really bothers me so much because truly what it should be called is solidarity. We are working in solidarity.’
‘We know what our role is at CTAOP, and I know the role that I play as someone who has a bit of a platform over here.’
She added, ‘As a unified head, we try to work in solidarity on long-term partnerships through grant-making and storytelling…’
