Deborah took to Instagram over the weekend and posted a slew of photos from their day spent volunteering, first sharing a photo where she and David appear deep in conversation as they pack boxes and boxes of meals.

She also shared plenty of selfies with her ABC crew surrounded by stacks of boxes, and capped things off with a sweet photo next to her co-host.

In her caption, she then wrote: "During the hustle and bustle of this season, we can’t forget that so many of our neighbors are struggling with food insecurity," adding: "Especially the elderly."
