Stars serve up meals for the needy on Thanksgiving

Neil Patrick Harris and pregnant actress Malin Akerman were among the stars who took to the streets of Los Angeles on Wednesday (21Nov12) to serve up Thanksgiving dinners for the homeless.

Hilary Duff, Matt Bomer, Zachary Levi and Blair Underwood also volunteered to help feed the less fortunate at the Los Angeles Mission, on the eve of the official holiday on Thursday (22Nov12).

The annual charity event is hosted by veteran actor Kirk Douglas and his wife Anne.

They weren't the only celebrities to spread a little festive cheer - actress Kyra Sedgwick spent Thanksgiving day taking supplies to New Yorkers affected by superstorm Sandy last month (Oct12).
