The ‘13 Going on 30’ star said, "I did lose a friend, and for our church, it's really tender so I don't feel like we should talk about it yet. I did lose a friend. She didn't get out in time."

Further expressing her grief, Garner continued, "My heart bleeds for my friends. I mean, I can think of 100 families, and there are 5,000 homes lost. I can — without even [thinking] — I could just write out a list of 100 friends who lost their homes."

"I feel almost guilty walking through my house. You know, what can I do? How can I help? What can I offer? What do I have to offer with these hands and these walls and the safety that I have?" she added.

The ‘Elektra’ actress shared that she’s "lived in and around the Palisades for 25 years, so I just think all of us, we want to get our hands into working, somehow, to be helpful."

"And because of my work with Save The Children, we have a relationship with the chef, and I was able to just say, 'Can I be with you for the day? What can I do to help? Put me to work,'" Garner told Tur.
