Putting in some time to help with a Hurricane Sandy relief effort named 'Operation Surfinbird', Freja Beha Erichsen and some of her model friends including Alana Zimmer, Hanne Gaby Odiele, Sheila Marquez, Christian Brylle and Amy Hixson joined in with over 100 volunteers to dish out Turkey dinners to those in need during the Thanksgiving holiday. According to the charity, they also raised money from an event hosted by several models:
"which raised almost $30,000, hosted by Alana Zimmer, Jacquelyn Jablonski, Sara Blomqvist, Erin O’Connor, and Patricia Fields, with music by Andrew from MGMT, Taka from Gang Gang Dance, Tan Lines and Das Racist."
The charity ended up "feeding over 500 people on the day at St Mary of the Sea Church, gave over 150 meals for home deliveries, for people who had disabilities, or were homebound" thanks to the work of Freja, her friends and the rest of the volunteers.
