On Saturday, Martin Sheen and Gary Smith will host the third annual Nick Steenolsen Foundation Beach BBQ fundraiser to improve the quality of life for Nick Steenolsen and other victims suffering from spinal cord injuries.

The Nick Steenolsen Foundation was established by Steenolsen’s friends and family after he sustained a spinal cord injury during a snowboarding accident in 2000\. Since then, the USC Long Beach Film School graduate, who was working on a Disney Imax project at the time of the accident, has teamed up with Sheen and Smith in an effort to rebuild his life and return to the film industry as an editor.

The fundraiser will be held at Zuma Beach at 30708 PCH in Malibu at 3 p.m. The event will be open to the public. A minimum donation of $25 is suggested. For more information, call (310) 458-9603.
