Socialite Paris Hilton is living up to her promise to be more charitable - she's planning a trip to Rwanda.

The Simple Life star, 26, vowed to turn her life around following her 45-day stint behind bars in June (07) for violating probation on a 2006 drink-driving charge.

Hilton's first move will be a charity jaunt to the African nation later this year (07) to help those less fortunate than herself, and she hopes her involvement will raise awareness of the cause.

She tells E! news, "I'll be going in November, after I get back from filming my movie. There's so much need in that area, and I feel like if I go, it will bring more attention to what people can do to help.

"I want to visit more countries where poverty and children's issues are a big concern. I know there's a lot of good I can do just by getting involved and bringing attention to these issues."
