[edit] Charity work

Gomez is becoming as well known for his charity work as he is for his acting. He donates some of every check to charity and spends countless hours doing charity work for many great causes. In 2006 he started a charity food drive called The Gomez Family Food Drive with his siblings (he has four, three sisters and a brother) Hunter put up $5,000 of his own money to offer as thank you donations to the groups that brought in the most cans. [2] The food drive raised over 100,000 cans for the less fortunate. He supports many children's charities and even recently used the money from his recent appearance on The Suite Life to sponsor a child through Compassion. Gomez has said that while he might not have the kind of money that big stars have he will use the money he does have and his time to help anyone he can. He also supports MADD and will be doing work for them starting July of 2007.

He has also been involved in politics both on a local and national level. He did a press conference at the Capitol with Ricky Schroeder and spoke, sharing information about the film industry in hopes of getting a bill passed to offer incentives to film makers.

Gomez has also donated thousands and appeared at fundraising events for Senator John McCain's 2008 presidential campaign. He has read letters to Senator McCain at a fundraising dinner. These letters had been sent to Gomez from young military personnel with hopes that he could share them with his hometown senator from Arizona. These letters from the young service men thanked Senator McCain for his support of the troops and shared their support for the senator. Holding these letters from the servicemen to read at the dinner, the young actor was seated at the head of the table between Senator and Mrs. McCain. Senator McCain said he was very touched, humbled and honored by what the letters said and thanked Gomez for sharing them with him.
