Last Wednesday, Courtney Cox and David Arquette teamed up with Feeding America in LA to launch its official brand and kick off its new "Fill a Bowl, Feed America" campaign.
This inaugural campaign will feature a freshly created Entertainment Council that is made up of a team of spokespeople including Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, Nick Lachey, Laila Ali, Scott Hamilton, Olympian Sanya Richards, and Phil Vassar.
All these celebs and more will be involved in a nationwide call to action to motivate Americans to fight against hunger, especially during a time where it has never been more imperative to do so.
That's because with the current state of the economy, one in eight Americans today cannot always tell where they will get their next meal. Furthermore, Feeding America's 205 food banks are reporting an increase in demand of 15 to 20 percent and higher, with currently 36 million Americans at risk of hunger.
But Courtney and David, along with a group of many other fabulous celebs, are rallying to feed these hungry mouths through their support. And now you can too by joining Do Something, Corbin Bleu and Participant Films to Feed the Need in your own community this holiday season.

This is such an important cause, especially as the temperatures drop and winter sets in across the country! Think of how cold you are walking down the street, and then imagine being hungry. Now is definitely such an important time to give back, and especially with added inspiration of Thanksgiving!
This is so important It ihnk w the holidays and stuff, courtney seems like she would be a good person like this, all schools should look into Feed the Need!!!
I agree, and this cause isn't just really relevant now because of the holidays, but also because of the current food crisis that people are experiencing worldwide!
