He’s thankful for his blessings! Aaron Carter has had a pretty rough year, but now that the holiday season is here, he’s putting all the negativity in the past and is focusing on giving back to those less fortunate. The troubled pop star made a rare public appearance for the first time since announcing that he was going back to rehab, and he spent his Thanksgiving preparing meals for the LA-based charity Project Angel Food.

Aaron looked happy and healthy in a handful of Instagram photos, in which he donned a Project Angel Food hat and chef apron while he chopped onions and sealed containers for the Thanksgiving meals. “Today, I’m thankful to be able to give back to [Project Angel Food] Happy Thanksgiving to all my fans!” the 29-year-old wrote in the caption and suggested that fans could donate to the charity.
