The annual Stockings with Care Celebrity Bartending Fundraiser will be held Nov. 13 at Frank's in Manhattan.

The four-hour evening, which begins at 7 PM, will feature a host of stars from the worlds of Broadway, primetime and daytime serials who will tend bar at the West 16th Street venue. Among those scheduled to participate are Matthew Morrison, Diane Neal, Kelli O'Hara, Cheyenne Jackson, Michael Arden, Angie Schworer, Jenna Leigh Green, Meital Dohan, Kristyn Ritter, Chrishell Stause, Justin Bruening, Tom Pelphrey, John Driscoll, Beth Chamberlain and Zach Roerig.

All bartenders' tips will be used to buy holiday gifts for families in shelters or those in jeopardy of becoming homeless. A silent auction and raffle of Broadway show tickets, sports memorabilia and other items will help raise additional funds.

Stockings with Care was created by Rosalie Joseph and Tom Fontana 15 years ago. The organization grants gift wishes of children "while preserving the dignity of parents or caregivers." For more information visit www.stockingswithcare.org.

Those attending are asked to make a $20 donation at the door. Frank's is located in Manhattan at 410 West 16th Street, between Ninth and Tenth Avenues.
