Zoe Saldana spent Martin Luther King Jr. Day volunteering to hand out supplies to victims of the Eaton Fire.

The Emilia Perez actress, 46, joined a group of National Day Laborer Organizing Network volunteers in Pasadena as she supported residents of the city and Altadena where the blaze ripped through two weeks ago.

In a video shared to Instagram, make-up free Zoe said: ‘We’re here at the Pasadena Job Center – I’m here with the team organizers. We are in dire need of a lot of items that are running out. The lines here of cars and people that are coming is incredible.

‘The support is incredible, but we need more. So if you guys can help, we are here right now. Come you guys.’

She wrote in a post: ‘On MLK day we are out here helping the communities of Pasadena and Altadena after the #EatonFire. 

‘If you can please bring donations to @daylaborernetwork @pasadenajobcenter at 500 N Lake Ave anytime between 10-5. We are short on water, formula, canned foods and fresh produce.’

The Eaton Fire -which is now at 89 per cent containment –  has scorched 14,000 acres, destroyed an estimated 7,000 structures and left 17 people ᴅᴇᴀᴅ.

The Eaton fire coincided with another inferno which swept through the ritzy celebrity enclave of Pacific Palisades and up the coast of Malibu. That fire destroyed 23,713 acres of prime real estate and at least nine people have perished.

Earlier this month, Prince Harry and his wife Meghan, Duchess of SusSєx, volunteered at the Pasadena Convention Center and helped to distribute food and supplies to victims of the California wildfires.

The couple donated supplies, served meals with the World Central Kitchen in Pasadena, California, thanked first responders and met with affected families as they took in the devastation caused by the fires in LA.

Pasadena Mayor Victor Gordo told PEOPLE: ‘It’s great people, great personalities and great heart for them to come out here and meet with the first responders, meet with the people who were affected,’ Gordo told the news station. ‘It’s very important. They really buoyed the spirits of the first responders.

‘People were very happy to see them. They want to be as helpful as they can be … we visited with some of the affected families in some of the burned-out areas in Pasadena and Altadena.

He added that Harry and Meghan’s appearance was not for ‘publicity’ and said they served food ‘anonymously’ earlier in the day.

He explained: ‘No one knew they were serving food with masks. We went to visit some of the families in the impacted area and view firsthand some of the impacted area and then they wanted to go visit the first responders and personally thank them for their efforts to help our families and their neighbours.’

It was previously reported that the couple – who are parents to Prince Archie, five, and three-year-old Princess Lillibet – opened their home to friends fleeing the wildfires.
