David Arquette is kicking off The Cheesecake Factory and Feeding America’s Drive Out Hunger Tour with a visit to the set of “Scrubs” and the set of “Cougar Town” to visit his wife, Courteney Cox.
“I wanted to come see my wife on the ‘Cougar Town’ set,” David tells ET. “One of the creators of her show is also the creator of ‘Scrubs,’ Bill Lawrence, so he brought them all together and it’s just been great — everybody came out, brought some cans to Feed America.”
“This whole campaign started because The Cheesecake Factory came up with the great idea to drive out hunger,” explains David, who volunteers at the Feeding America charity. “They are going to 30 cities in 30 days to really put an emphasis on Hunger Action Awareness month in September.”

David Arquette is going to live in a box. For two days. For charity.
The actor is going to stay in a Plexiglas (I think that means plastic?) box above the Madison Square Garden marquee for two days next week. However, he won’t be in there all day. He’ll be inside for about eight hours each day. His stay will earn $250,000 for the charity Feeding America.
Donations will be given at Madison Square Garden or online or through text messages. If anyone’s in New York next Tuesday and Wednesday, make sure to stop by and wave hello.
Good for David Arquette. We always need actors doing crazy stuff for charity. If David Blaine had raised money every time he has sat on ice or submerged himself in water we might have rid the world of world hunger by now.
