Former Nickelodeon Star Josh Peck Volunteers at Los Angeles Mission Easter Event

Josh Peck, the former Nickelodeon star, attended the Los Angeles Mission Easter event on Friday, joining the nonprofit organization in providing a traditional holiday meal, hygiene kits, candy, and other treats for unhoused and housing-insecure people in the Skid Row area of Los Angeles. The 37-year-old actor, known for his role in ‘Drake and Josh,’ was photographed in the kitchen, smiling with a red apron on as he handed out meals to those in need.

Peck was among several big-name stars in attendance for the Easter volunteer event. Celebrities like Nick Cannon, Denise Richards, Jennie Garth, Corey Feldman, and others joined him to support the cause. The Los Angeles Mission is among the largest providers of services to homeless people in the country.

Josh’s appearance at the event comes shortly after he voiced his support for his former Nickelodeon co-star Drake Bell, who recently came forward with abuse allegations from his time as a child actor on the network. In a statement shared on Instagram, Peck praised Drake’s courage in opening up about the sexual abuse he suffered at the hands of a Nickelodeon dialogue coach Brian Peck, to whom Josh has no relation.

In connection with Drake’s case, Brian pleaded no contest to a charge of oral copulation with a minor under 16 as well as a charge of performing a lewd act with a teenager in 2004. He spent 16 months in prison and was mandated to register as a sex offender. Josh Peck’s support for Drake and his active participation in the Los Angeles Mission Easter event reflect his commitment to giving back to the community and standing up for important causes.
