An Actor and A Man: Mark Salling Talks of Charity, Puck, and Falling for Shelby

He’s gorgeous, and this guitar-toting, Lady A-covering 28-year old Glee star just happens to be one of the most talented actors, not to mention a part of the most popular television shows up to date. And see him once again on Glee Season 3 Episode 7: I Kissed a Girl on November 29, 2011. Most women in his age bracket and below, he’s 28 actually, think he’s all that perfect, wait ‘til you find out what the hunky music man’s got his hands full with, because this time, he’s heavily involved with the Child Hunger Ends Here campaign. And yes, he’s on the real deal! 
Recently, we spoke to Salling about his work with the organization, how others who want to help can get involved, and of course, not to forget a little bit of scoop from him about the series’ Puck-Shelby-Quinn love triangle.
Technically, Child Hunger Ends Here is a campaign that is brought closer to the public by ConAgra Foods, who manufactures all household products you may find in your entire kitchen, and basically, they’re doing a campaign where people can save up their UPC codes and turn them in, because each UPC code of a ConAgra Foods product equals a whole meal for a hungry child. That’s the heart of the idea, which attracted Salling so far. 
Practically keeping himself busy with Glee, he still finds it important to devote one’s free time towards helping others. ‘Being on a show like Glee is a blessing and somewhat of a platform to do what I want with it, whether it's positive or negative or nothing at all. I'm choosing to do the most I can and leave the most positive impression I can on people, and I do that with this campaign and I also do that with other wildlife rescue charities. I think everyone needs to have a little charity in their life and this ConAgra campaign makes it really easy for people to do that and it's really rewarding.’
When asked what has been the most fulfilling thing while working with the campaign, here’s what the actor said: ‘The most gratifying thing is meeting people on Twitter actually saying, 'Hey, I just registered my school, and I just turned in a bunch of UCP codes,' and I know right away that it has made a difference.
Moving on, t takes a man with the image of a bad by and the true heart of a man to portray Puck’s character, so this time, Puck will be falling for Shelby, and will try to make a family out of the situation.  There will be more numbers, more solos, more love triangles, and more Dumpsters moments to come so hang on to Glee Season 3 Episode 7: I Kissed a Girl, and we’ll be dealing with it on November 29, 2011.
