Review: Spectrum hosts ‘Salem Proud’ online ‘Days of Our Lives’ event (Includes first-hand account)

This Zoom event featured Emmy award-winning actors Freddie Smith, Chandler Massey, and Greg Rikaart (Days of Our Lives alum), as well as Christopher Sean and Brock Kelly. The actors were candid about a wide variety of topics that fans inquired about.

Particularly impressive about this Zoom event was that a portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Los Angeles LGBT Center.

Speaking of charity events, several of the actors opened up about the “Samantha’s Friends” annual fundraiser in Florida, which raises funds for the Southeastern Guide Dogs in Florida.

“Being able to get people around a cause is phenomenal: to give your time and raise money,” Freddie Smith said about his favorite thing about doing charity events. He went on to praise “Samantha’s Friends” for the passion that they have over there. “It’s so inspiring. Thank you for the work that you do. It’s amazing,” Smith added.

Christopher Sean, who has done their event for the past seven years, expressed his love for “Samantha’s Friends.” “It is a beautiful nonprofit event. You guys mean so much to me, that’s why I have been going for seven years,” he said. “I plan to keep going for as long as I possibly can. Thank you very much.”
