"    REDBOOK recently caught up with Mark Salling\u2014Glee&amp;#039;s resident bad boy Noah &amp;#039;Puck&amp;#039; Puckerman\u2014on how he is joining ConAgra Foods and the Child Hunger Ends Here campaign to help stamp out child hunger and to get a sneak peak at the upcoming third season of Glee. The third season of Glee premiers September 20 and your character is McKinley High&amp;#039;s notorious flirt. What can we expect from Puck this season? Well, Puckerman is always going to be loving the ladies. But the romance with Lauren (Zizes, played by Ashley Fink) that started last season is going to come to a sad end. We&amp;#039;re only three episodes into filming this season and already there is a lot to be seen. Why did you want to get involved with Child Hunger Ends Here? I&amp;#039;m originally from Dallas, Texas and through my work with the campaign I found out Texas has the second highest rate of children affected by hunger so that spoke specifically to me and really made me want to get involved. 24.3 percent of children are without access to food in Texas. This number is just behind Arkansas&amp;#039; 24.4 percent. In 16 states and Washington, D.C., 20 percent or more of the child population is living in food insecure households. What goals is Child Hunger Ends Here hoping to reach this year? We want to donate 5 million meals in the 2011-2012 school year. The shocking truth is that one out of every four children in the US is affected by child hunger\u2014that&amp;#039;s 17 million kids total. How can REDBOOK readers help? What makes this charity so great is how clear and easy it is to help out. ConAgra has started a campaign where people collect UPC codes from their food products and each UPC code on its own will provide a whole meal for a hungry child. It&amp;#039;s so important that you don&amp;#039;t throw out codes that will help a hungry child! Most likely, you already have ConAgra UPC codes in your house today. The brand is behind national foods such as: Chef Boyardee, Hebrew National Hot Dogs, Egg Beaters, Marie Callender&amp;#039;s, Orville Reddenbacher&amp;#039;s and many more.
