Liverpool legend Kenny Dalglish has been going on charitable deeds this week, helping out with local foodbanks by Anfield in order to do his bit for the community.
Dalglish joined staff volunteers from the club who were on hand to help prepare food parcels for local residents in need at St Andrews Community Network.
As the Reds gear up to return to the pitch this weekend the club are hoping to get fans involved with donating what they can to people in crisis.
Liverpool legend Kenny Dalglish led the way by making donations to local foodbanks this week
Ahead of Huddersfield's visit to Anfield supporters attending the game can drop off any non-perishable food donations and toiletries at the foodbank collection points, which are open three hours before kick-off and located on Anfield Road, next to the club’s family park, and inside the new LFC Anfield superstore.
Liverpool return to action on Saturday when they come up against Premier League new boys Huddersfield.
Jurgen Klopp will go head to head with his close friend David Wagner, who he previously worked with at Borussia Dortmund.
All love will be left on the touchline however, with Liverpool desperate to get back to winning ways following their recent Wembley humiliation to Tottenham.

Star man Philippe Coutinho has been ruled out of the clash with an abductor strain, though it is the defensive area Klopp needs to worry about most.
The Reds' back line came under huge criticism during the Wembley meltdown, in a match which saw Dejan Lovren hooked from the field after just half an hour played.
Klopp has since come out to publicly defend the Croatian centre half, declaring Lovren to be a member of the Liverpool 'family' who has the full support of his colleagues.
The charitable gesture is part of a new drive by the club to help vulnerable people in the area
'I don't wish mistakes to be discussed in public. You have no idea how it feels,' Klopp said.
'I'm not the kind of person to stand around with a smart phone and not help. It wasn't the nicest week in Dejan's life but it is only football. I've much more positive things to think about with him than negative still.
'He's a Liverpool player and that's how I treat him, as a member of his family. At the end it's up to you what you make of stories like this, if you celebrate or not,' he added.
