New Orleans Saints running back Pierre Thomas and Morton's The Steakhouse teamed up to host the fifth annual Celebrity Servers Dinner on Monday, Dec. 8.

Defensive ends Cameron Jordan and Akiem Hicks, wide receivers Joe Morgan, Kenny Stills, Robert Meachem and Brandon Coleman and fullback Erik Lorig all showed their support for their teammate by trading in their uniforms for aprons to serve more than 200 guests a four-course meal of Morton's signature cuisine.

Before guests were served, they enjoyed a cocktail reception where they received autographs and mingled with players. 

All event proceeds went to Thomas' ICAN Foundation – a non-profit dedicated to tackling childhood obesity in America.

"We are taking an active approach to make a difference in the lives of our youth. As a kid, I spent a majority of my time outside playing different sports and games," Thomas said. "These days youngsters have so many different distractions with the TV, computers, video games and cell phones that we need to make it a priority to show them that being active can be both fun and rewarding."
