Lucy Lawless fans have a week where they donate to charities  and do charitable acts. Lucy speaks out about child abuse, and is a member of the Star ship Foundation. She has been awarded the Order of Merit for services and to entertainment and to the community. 

I would help families that are in need and need help. I would also love to help the people that are in the Womens shelters. RSPCA I would also give donations to as they need to get food, toys and all things that the animals need to have to feel at home until they find a home for them. 

They can have a big impact on people everywhere. The way that the cat, the issues that they fix, who they help and why they did can touch peoples hearts as it makes them think about real life issues and the things that they can do to help the help their own community. The way that they act can have a huge impact on kids as they are still developing and things can stick in their brain better than it can with adult.
