Guy Fieri Serves Barbecue To Carr Fire Victims

REDDING, CA -- As a deadly wildfire raged through Redding, celebrity chef Guy Fieri joined the Salvation Army over the weekend to help Carr Fire victims. The Santa Rosa resident of Food Network fame told CNN he decided to drive his son and team up four hours to help the nearly 38,000 people displaced by the deadly fire.

Fieri joined the Salvation Army, who began serving victims Friday, to cook food for the evacuees.

"We have a make-shift kitchen and a bunch of stoves," Fieri said. "We just did lunch for 750 (people) and we're getting ready to serve them dinner now."

Fieri encouraged members of the public who wanted to help to donate money to the Salvation Army rather than attempt to drive goods to the evacuation centers.

"A lot of people don't know where to go or what to do but the Salvation Army is helping," Fieri told CNN.

This isn't the first time the celebrity chef has helped victims of the California wildfire. When deadly wildfires swept through Wine Country in October 2017, Fieri also did what he does best and cooked and served food to the victims there.

By Monday morning, the 98,000-acre blaze was just 20 percent contained.
