South Africans can look forward to seeing more of Charlize Theron in her native country, as she will be visiting South Africa to make a difference and give back to the community.

The Academy award winning actress Charlize Theron, wants to give something positive back to South Africa after her success overseas, reported SABC news on Friday.

She was speaking at the launch of the Mpilonhle Health and Computer Unit at Mtubatuba on the KwaZulu-Natal north coast, a project which will give pupils access to nursing services including counselling and HIV testing.

Theron's Africa Out Reach Project and US talk show host Oprah Winfrey's Angel Network provided lead funding to establish the unit.

According to the Mercury, pupils of Nhliziyo High School, in a deep rural area near Mtubatuba, could not contain their excitement when the movie star, dressed in traditional Zulu attire, mingled with them and hugged them after speaking at an open-air assembly of their school.

Theron flew to Richards Bay unannounced earlier this week and was reportedly delighted to be back home.
