Zac, rocking the charity’s star shaped pin on his collar, attended last night’s 2011 Trevor Live Event for The Trevor Project at the Hollywood Palladium. His New Year’s Eve co-star Michelle Pfeiffer appeared on stage alongside him, to tell a story from the hotline, as well as introduce a performance from Queen Latifah.

Zac donated a HUGE mound of clothes and shoes to ‘The Teen’s Closet‘ in Arroyo Grande yesterday (Tuesday). The charity provides clothing for disadvantaged and homeless teens and parents and this new center in California opened earlier this month.

Visit our Charity Page to take a look at more of the work that he has done. Check out photos from the donation in the ZacE Gallery and leave your kudos for Zac’s generosity in the comments below!

During Zac’s promotional tour for Charlie St. Cloud, the Starlight Children’s Foundation granted 18 year old Lama her biggest wish. The charity arranged for Lama, who has Spina Bifida, to have a tea party at Claridges with Zac, followed by red carpet passes to the movie premiere later that night.

Zac Efron joined Lama and her family, where he chatted easily with excited Lama.  The High School Musical star then presented Lama with a bracelet that had a line from his favourite film, Back to the Future’ inscribed, which read ‘where we are going we don’t need roads’.  When saying goodbye, beaming Lama thanked Zac and he signed her copy of Charlie St Cloud, the book of the film premiere that both Zac and Lama were due to attend that evening.

Be sure to check out more on Lama’s wish as well as the charity itself on their website.
