Christian Bale hung up his Batsuit in 2012, but “The Dark Knight” star is still saving lives with his Together California foster care village in Palmdale, California, which opened on Friday, according to ABC 7.

The facility aims to keep siblings entering the foster care system together – a circumstance that is not always guaranteed. 

“It’s our job to turn their heartbreak and their pain into love and hope and a sense of future,” Bale told ABC 7.
