To show his support of the campaign, Buckley made a special appearance at the Aeropostale store at Independence Mall in Wilmington, NC, which has become his home since his debut on One Tree Hill last fall. The actor signed jeans, took pictures, and conversed with the store associates about the special cause and campaign.
Additional celebrities to support “Teens for Jeans” are; Kelly Clarkson, Ellen Degeneres, AnnaLynne McCord, and Taylor Swift just to name a few. The campaign raises awareness about the rising epidemic of homeless teens by motivating teens across the US and Canada to donate gently worn jeans to homeless youth in their communities.
Due to the recent disaster in Haiti, Aeropostale and DoSomething.org have the extended the campaign’s reach to further help those affected by the earthquake. Aeropostale will be matching the first 100,000 pairs donated with 100,000 brand new jeans to be sent to Haiti.

Rob Buckley will continue to donate his time for good later this month when he attends the 'Celebrity Autograph Fund-raiser' in order to raise money for a memorial wall honoring the fallen police officers of the city of Wilmington. Along with his fellow One Tree Hill cast members, Buckley will sign autographs for donations towards the 'Officer Down Memorial' project.
