JENNIFER LOVE HEWITT HELPS LOS ANGELES' NEEDY
While most were out shopping, Jennifer Love Hewitt and fiance Ross McCall took time out of their Christmas schedule to help out at the Los Angeles Mission in downtown LA.
The mission, which expected to serve about 3,000 meals and give out more than 1,000 gifts to 600 children, helps homeless people living on the streets around Hope Street (known as Skid Row).
Talking to press about the charity event, Jennifer tells: "I mean, it's all about giving back, and I think what I realize as I get older is that Christmas really when you're a kid it is, of course, about presents and it's about Santa Claus and everything, but the gift of knowing that you've touched one of your fellow man and that you've, you know, given something to them is amazing."
The 28-year-old Ghost Whisperer actress adds: "And I think the greatest thing about our jobs is we're given, because we're on television or because we do those things, we're given the opportunity to speak out about things that we're really passionate about."
