Hayden Panettiere Raises Money for Whales

This past Sunday Heroes star Hayden Panttiere hosted a benefit for the Whaleman Foundation, an organization she has worked with since she was 15 years old. The foundation is dedicated to preserving and protecting dolphins, whales, and their ocean habitat.

This type of activism is no farce, as if you can recall, a few years ago Panttiere even protested at sea in an effort to save a group of Japanese whales from slaughter.

Here's a clip of Hayden on Good Morning America in September talking about her advocacy.

Props to Moe Jackson on the find.
