Stars of The Young and the Restless have been sharing how to help others this month, especially in light of the fires ravaging the Los Angeles area. Today, they joined together at Project Angel Food to do just that.

The Young and the Restless donates time

Several stars from The Young and the Restless spent their day at Project Angel Food on Monday, January 27th. Pitching in to lend a hand were Sean Dominic (Nate Winters), Mark Grossman (Adam Newman), Lauralee Bell (Christine Williams), Zuleyka Silver (Audra Charles), Hayley Erin (Claire Newman), Courtney Hope (Sally Spectra), Connor Floyd (Chance Chancellor), Tracy Bregman (Lauren Fenmore), and Kate Linder (Esther Valentine). The group helped to make extra meals needed for new clients of the foundation due to the fires and poor air quality.

Lauralee Bell posted about the event on Instagram, captioning the photo, “Spent the afternoon with my @youngandrestlesscbs pals working for the amazing @projectangelfood ! Thank you for having us!”

Y&R costar Redding Munsell, who plays Harrison Abbott, gave the triple heart treatment as a reaction.

Brad Bessey of Project Angel Food was so thankful for their generosity and the energy they brought to the task. He posted a group photo of the Y&R gang, captioning, “I. Love. These. People. @youngandrestlesscbs come out to support our @projectangelfood fire relief efforts preparing extra meals for the clients we’ve added due to the devastation and poor air quality left in the wake. Man, these people aren’t only some of TV’s brightest stars, but they are true humanitarians who put compassion into action!”

What is Project Angel Food?

Project Angel Food is a nonprofit organization in Los Angeles County that provides free, nutritious meals to people with health challenges. Founded in 1989 in response to the AIDS crisis, Project Angel Food's mission is to end food insecurity and improve health outcomes for people with life-threatening illnesses.

Project Angel Food has announced they are relaunching Angel Art on February 27th, 2025, at Bonhams, Los Angeles. Angel Art is an acclaimed benefit auction with 100% of the proceeds benefiting the vital works of Project Angel Food. This amazing event, which partners with the international arthouse Bonhams, takes the art community and unites them to support critically ill individuals after the devasting Los Angeles fires. The fires have displaced people from their homes and made things challenging for L.A.’s most vulnerable people whom Project Angel Food serves.

Last year, in celebration of her 45th anniversary in the Y&R role of Nikki Newman, Melody Thomas Scott organized a group of her castmates to join her. She was accompanied by Colleen Zenk (Jordan Howard), Eric Braeden (Victor Newman), Tracey Bregman (Lauren Fenmore), Lauralee Bell (Christine Williams), and Michelle Stafford (Phyllis Summers), who spent the day at Project Angel Food's kitchen, helping label meals.
