In 2020, Maisie Williams proved once again that she’s a good egg when she made a hefty donation (roughly $60,000) to the same animal rescue shelter from which she adopted her beloved dog four years previously. The “Game of Thrones” star is just as interested in helping animals, and indeed the rest of civilization, on a bigger scale, too.
A year later, the World Wildlife Fund appointed Williams as their first-ever Global Ambassador for Climate and Nature, a position which saw her introduce Sir David Attenborough’s “The Green Planet” at COP26 soon after. In a press statement to celebrate her affiliation, the actor revealed how proud she was to be joining the fight against climate change: “I am honored and excited to be working with WWF where together we will give the opportunity for people to learn about critical parts of the natural world that are most at risk, and how we can all personally make a difference and preserve them for future generations.”

Williams has also participated in several protests against the practice of dolphin hunting, campaigning in particular for Dolphin Project, the initiative set up by trainer Ric O’Barry. Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter about her work, the Brit said, “It was something that just struck a chord in my heart. And I’m a firm believer that, if there is something that you really want to stand up and fight for, then you should.”
