Millie Bobby Brown

Millie Bobby Brown, known for her role as Eleven in Stranger Things, has used her fame and platform to advocate for various causes, particularly those related to children’s rights and mental health. Her acts of kindness and generosity range from formal philanthropic work to personal, compassionate gestures.

Small Acts of Kindness and Generosity:

Millie encourages her followers to engage in random acts of kindness, such as sending supportive messages or sharing empowering content, to combat negativity both online and offline.

When a fan named Aaron was left heartbroken after none of his friends showed up to his Stranger Things-themed birthday party, his sister posted about it on Twitter. Brown saw the post and responded publicly, telling Aaron he was “awesome” and inviting herself to his party the following year. The compassionate message helped lift the boy’s spirits and drew media attention to the issue of bullying.

A video surfaced of Brown and her fiancé, Jake Bongiovi, spending over an hour trying to help a homeless man find a place to stay in New York City. They were persistent in their efforts, taking him to shelters and hotels, demonstrating a direct and personal act of compassion.

A video has circulated online showing Brown learning and using sign language to greet and communicate with a fan on the red carpet, demonstrating her willingness to make a genuine and thoughtful connection.

Animal Rescue and Care: Millie owns 62 pets, including a pregnant donkey and a previously blind dog named Rigby, who has shown significant improvement under her care. She humorously refers to herself as a “doula” for her animals, ensuring their comfort and well-being.

Large Acts of Kindness and Generosity:

In 2018, at the age of 14, Brown was appointed as UNICEF’s youngest-ever Goodwill Ambassador. She uses her global platform to raise awareness about children’s rights and issues such as violence, bullying, poverty, and lack of education. In this role, she has:

Visited UNICEF’s global supply headquarters to help pack emergency supplies for vulnerable children.

Spoken at the United Nations headquarters, delivering messages about children’s rights and advocating for a world where “periods don’t hold us back.”

Participated in virtual events to address issues like cyberbullying and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on children.

Fundraising for the Olivia Hope Foundation: Brown is an honorary member of the board for the Olivia Hope Foundation, a childhood cancer charity. She helped raise $40,000 for the foundation by auctioning off a limited number of tickets for a private lunch with her. She became involved with the charity after befriending a fan who was battling cancer.

Supporting the Vanderpump Dog Foundation: She has shown her support for animal welfare by working with The Vanderpump Dog Foundation, which is dedicated to creating a better world for dogs.

Working with Louis Vuitton for fundraising: Brown has supported UNICEF’s corporate partnership with Louis Vuitton and their #MAKEAPROMISE campaign, which raises funds for education.

Hugh Jackman

On the set of Deadpool & Wolverine, Hugh Jackman gives out scratch-lottery tickets every Friday to below-the-line crew members as a thank you and to recognize that many people working on a film are “unsung heroes.”

A 9-year-old boy named Domenic, who has cystic fibrosis, participated in a Make-A-Wish event where he thought he was simply calling Jackman. Jackman surprised him by showing up in person (via radio) and doing some of his favorite “Wolverine” poses, talked with him, and gave him tickets to his show.

Jackman has volunteered with organizations like Share The Harvest Farm, which grows and provides fresh food for families in need in the East End of Long Island. He helped transport produce etc.

He participated in the Feeling Nuts campaign (Check One Two), which encourages men to perform self-examination for testicular cancer and spread awareness.

After his “From New York, with Love” concert at Radio City, Hugh took time after the show (in the cold) to greet fans outside, sign autographs, hug fans (including Dannielynn Birkhead, daughter of Larry Birkhead), making her dream come true.

After visiting Ethiopia and meeting a coffee farmer named Dukale, Jackman founded Laughing Man Coffee & Tea.

The business is tied to the Laughing Man Foundation, which supports coffee farming communities, sustainable practices, and programs in education and community development.

As an ambassador for World Vision, Jackman has urged support for relief in crises such as the Haiti earthquake, and engaged in World Vision’s microfinance, agriculture, and health programs in countries like Ethiopia and Cambodia.

Jackman received the Order of Australia Medal in recognition of his efforts toward eradicating poverty.

He reposted a video of a middle-school blind student named Ashton, shared by the student’s mother, and asked his followers to help him get in touch so he could wish the kid an amazing school year.

Brad Pitt

Brad has been reported to volunteer in LA’s Watts area, handing out groceries and essentials to underserved communities. It’s said he has done this multiple times.

Reports say that Brad Pitt allowed a 105-year-old neighbor to stay in one of his homes rent-free.

While filming World War Z in London, Pitt made a spontaneous donation of about $1,100 to Southampton Hospital’s neonatal unit when a fundraiser asked if he’d like to contribute.

He reportedly donated $1 million to racial justice organizations in early 2025, moved by the events surrounding George Floyd and other related issues.

In 2007, Brad Pitt founded the Make It Right Foundation to help rebuild homes in New Orleans’ Lower Ninth Ward after Hurricane Katrina. The goal was to provide eco-friendly, storm-resistant, and affordable housing for people who had lost nearly everything.

The homes included sustainable design elements (green roofs, efficient heating/cooling) and aesthetic considerations.

Together with Angelina Jolie, Pitt established the Jolie-Pitt Foundation. Among its early acts:

Donations to Doctors Without Borders and Global Action for Children.

A donation of $1 million to a U.N. refugee agency in 2009 to help people displaced by conflict in Pakistan.

Support in Darfur and Sudan / The Sentry / Not On Our Watch
Pitt has been involved in humanitarian efforts related to Darfur, including donating to relief work and being part of coalitions/organizations aimed at drawing attention to mass atrocities. He is one of the co-founders of Not On Our Watch, an organization focused on preventing human rights abuses.

Brad and his siblings donated $1 million to a hospital in Springfield, Missouri to open the Jane Pitt Pediatric Cancer Center, named in honor of Brad’s mother. The funding helped hire the only pediatric oncologist/hematologist in southwestern Missouri.

Brad Pitt has spoken openly about having reached a low point after his divorce and seeking help through AA. In interviews and on Dax Shepard’s Armchair Expert podcast, he’s described attending AA meetings, being “on his knees,” and recognizing the importance of honesty, accountability, and vulnerability.

While this is more personal than a “public act of charity,” sharing this kind of struggle can help reduce stigma around addiction and mental health. It can be a kind, helpful gesture by giving others hope or encouragement.

“Huddle Up” Message Before the 2025 Super Bowl
Pitt recorded a message for the 2025 Super Bowl urging unity among Americans, emphasizing lifting others up during hard times — referencing natural disasters like wildfires and Hurricane Helene.

This kind of public encouragement, especially from someone influential, can be seen as kindness in the sense of promoting social cohesion and compassion.

Robert Redford

In addition for Robert Redford’s larger acts of kindness such as purchasing 2,600 acres in Utah to illustrate building in a small way and preserving nature in a big way, he has been known for smaller kindnesses as well.

While filming Pete’s Dragon in New Zealand, Redford noticed a horse tied by a fence near the freeway. It was emaciated, had no water or hay, and clearly neglected. He stopped, knocked on doors in the neighborhood to see if anyone claimed the horse. No one did. Then he coordinated with an animal rescue group and personally rescued the horse.

In an interview, Redford talked about being in school sports and tending to select the kid who was uncoordinated or less gifted for his teams. Even though that sometimes meant more work or frustration for him, he said that seeing those kids’ faces when included meant a lot to him.

A person who once managed a private screening for Redford and his son recalls that the screening equipment failed partway through. The person was anxious and embarrassed. After the screening, Redford introduced himself, reassured the person that he and his son had enjoyed the experience anyway, and joked about the intermission. The person felt very comforted by Redford’s grace and kindness in turning a stressful situation into something pleasant.

Another story shared by someone who worked at one of Redford’s restaurants:

A table of longtime fans (a mother and daughters) came in during the Sundance Festival. They had hoped to see Robert Redford in person.

Redford came by their table, leaned in, smiled, and said, “Is this close enough?” when asked if they could see him. He thanked them politely. It was brief, but very meaningful to the fans.

Redford’s kindness was characterized by quiet humility and a focus on long-term impact rather than personal acclaim. As he once reflected, his greatest achievement was his family and the positive changes he helped foster for future generations. His legacy continues through the organizations he built, which have empowered artists, protected the planet, and promoted equity worldwide.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

RFK Jr.’s Plan to Make America Kind Again

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has been involved in advocating for environmental protection and children’s health throughout his career.

He is the founder of the Waterkeeper Alliance, a global environmental organization that works to protect the world’s major waterways. Through this organization, he has led numerous legal battles and advocacy efforts aimed at holding polluters accountable and safeguarding aquatic ecosystems. This work has directly contributed to cleaner water and healthier environments for communities.

Kennedy also co-founded Children’s Health Defense (CHD), an organization dedicated to protecting children’s health by investigating and exposing the causes of chronic illness and disability. CHD focuses on issues related to environmental toxins, vaccines, and other factors impacting children’s well-being.

In his father’s legacy, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has spoken about the importance of empathy, compassion, and justice, particularly in relation to the poor and marginalized. He has referenced his father’s belief that America should be an “exemplary nation,” demonstrating the best of its values at home and abroad through diplomacy and aid rather than military force. He has also written a children’s book about St. Francis of Assisi, a figure known for his commitment to kindness and service to the poor.

While his public profile has recently been associated with controversy regarding public health policies, his career has been marked by efforts to advocate for environmental causes and raise awareness about children’s health issues.

This video below discusses Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s vision for community and kindness in America. You’ll notice that when he was hoping to become president of the United States, his platform wasn’t ‘win at all costs,’ but something gentler, built on promoting kindness.

During a Hilarity for Charity event—Seth Rogen’s non-profit to raise Alzheimer’s awareness, Snoop auctioned off a blunt on stage, which fetched $10,000 for the cause.

In 2019, Snoop teamed up with Cash App for a Giving Tuesday campaign. Donations to his foundation, “Snoop’s Special Stars,” which organizes a football league where “EveryBODY plays,” were matched up to $200,000.

Julia Roberts

Here are a few genuine acts of kindness and philanthropy by Julia Roberts—demonstrating her generosity both on and off the screen:

On-Set Kindness & Personal Support

Myha’la Herrold, Roberts’ co-star in Leave the World Behind, shared how Jules gently massaged her hand during a particularly painful headache on set. She recalled: “She grabbed my hand and massaged [a trigger point right here]. … It was such a clear gesture to say, ‘We are safe here together’.”
People.com

Julia Stiles, who worked with Roberts on Mona Lisa Smile, praised her for her maternal instincts, recalling how Julia “took care of all the girls” on set, creating a nurturing and kind environment.

In a more recent reflection, Stiles revealed that Roberts offered her inspiring and compassionate advice during a difficult time around body image. Julia encouraged self-acceptance, reminding her that youth often overlooks its own beauty—a deeply caring gesture.

Charitable Campaigns & Causes

Julia partnered with Omaze on a “Choose Kind” t-shirt campaign to raise funds for PACER, a nonprofit dedicated to ending bullying and supporting people with disabilities. She lent her voice and popularity to promote kindness and inclusion.

A longtime supporter of GLSEN (Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network), Roberts has auctioned lunches to benefit their Respect Awards, encouraged donations on her birthdays, and used her platform to emphasize the importance of safe, affirming schools for all students.

Broader Philanthropic Work

In 1995, Roberts visited Port-au-Prince, Haiti, to learn firsthand about UNICEF’s work—a move that encouraged a $10 million aid push. She’s also narrated a documentary about Rett syndrome to raise awareness and served as spokesperson and advisory board member for Earth Biofuels.

She has participated in charity events honoring Paul Newman, including performances in San Francisco to benefit The Painted Turtle, a specialty camp for children with life-threatening illnesses.

Her humanitarian efforts include supporting The Normal Heart on HBO and receiving the Award of Courage at an amfAR Gala for her work in raising AIDS awareness and kindness.

In a deeply touching memory, Roberts revealed that Martin Luther King Jr. and Coretta Scott King paid for her parents’ hospital bill after her birth. This act was rooted in friendship and mutual trust—her parents ran a theater school that the Kings’ children attended. As Julia reflected, “It sort of lays the groundwork for who you are.”

In Summary

Julia Roberts’ kindness spans personal gestures—like comforting actors on set and offering guidance to younger colleagues—to major philanthropic efforts including anti-bullying campaigns, LGBTQ+ advocacy, documentary narration, global relief, and honoring humanitarian legacies. Her story even reflects a foundational act of compassion that influenced her own compassion: the generosity shown to her family at birth.
