Meghan Markle volunteers and donates to help teens impacted by the recent fires in Los Angeles

Los Angeles: Meghan Markle is stepping up to help teenage girls affected by the recent fires. On Monday, she visited a relief center in Altadena, California, where she dropped off donations and volunteered her time.
This center, called Altadena Girls, was started by a young girl named Avery, whose school was destroyed in the Eaton Fire. Avery has been gathering clothes and beauty products to help her friends regain their confidence after losing so much.
Meghan showed up with bags full of new clothes and beauty items. She kept a low profile, wearing a casual outfit with a baseball cap. The group shared a video on Instagram, thanking everyone who helped out that day.
Fans were thrilled to see Meghan’s involvement. Many commented on how amazing it was to see the community come together. A source mentioned that her donations came through the Archewell Foundation, which she runs with Prince Harry.
Meghan didn’t just drop off items; she also spent time with the teens, chatting and offering support as they sorted through the donations. The mission of Altadena Girls is to help young girls feel good about themselves again.
Avery started this group because she noticed that while many donations were coming in, they mostly included food and household items. She wanted to focus on things that would help her friends feel normal and confident again, especially during such a tough time.
Meghan has a history of supporting fire victims. She and Harry have donated clothes and toys, even some of their personal items. They’ve also contributed financially to recovery efforts.
Recently, they were seen volunteering in Pasadena, meeting first responders and touring areas affected by the fires. They even opened their home to friends fleeing the disaster.
Given the tragic loss of life from the fires, Meghan postponed the release of her new Netflix cooking show to focus on helping those in need.
