Hugh Jackman knows the importance of giving back.
The Australian actor has been married to wife, Deborra-Lee Furness, for 22 years and is a father to 2 children.
The couple’s kids are now aged 18 and 12, with Hugh saying that it is important for him that they acknowledge how blessed they are.
“My kids have so many advantages and I want them to know that they have a responsibility to use those advantages to help others.”
“My kids are constantly reminded about how lucky we are in our family,” the 49-year-old told PEOPLE. “We’re ridiculously blessed. We live in a beautiful home in places that other people dream of.”
The star of The Greatest Showman also wants his children to give back to society, stating, “child. “I was brought up with parents who both did volunteer work and community work. They gave back. After my father retired, he donated his services as an accountant to developing nations for three years. So it always felt normal to me to give back. I want it to feel normal. The more we can see the world as a whole, and the less as ‘your team, my team,’ the better we will be.”
We’re Team Hugh all the way.
