Mark Hamill talks fundraising for Ukraine, love of politics

  • By MARTINA REBECCA INCHINGOLO Associated Press

Since Mark Hamill was tapped as an ambassador for United24's "Army of Drones" campaign earlier this fall, a lot has happened. He had a Zoom call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, 500 drones have already been sent to Ukraine and a new effort to raise funds toward 10 reconnaissance drones has been launched. As one of the most famous celebrities in the galaxy, Hamill told The Associated Press on a Zoom call last week that he has a responsibility to use his voice to help those in need.
