Two days ago, the Duke and Duchesse of Sussex went volunteering at Homeboy Industries. 

Meghan and Harry helped the Bakery and Café’s organization prepared numerous meals. Homeboy Industries is a social justice organization located in Los Angeles that “provide[s] training and support to formerly gang-involved and previously incarcerated men and women in the city, allowing them to redirect their lives.”

Take a look at some of the pictures.

The organization was thrilled to have them, in a statement they made, they described the couple as being casual people, “they were dressed down with jeans.” And of course, for the safety of others, they were wearing masks and gloves as well.

Thank you to Harry and Meghan, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, for visiting and standing in kinship with our Café and Bakery teams yesterday! Our staff was thrilled to work alongside them as they helped prepare food and learned more about our newly launched #FeedHOPE program, which employs our program participants to provide meals to food-insecure seniors and youth across Los Angeles in the wake of the #COVID19 pandemic. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ For 32 years, Homeboy Industries has stood as a beacon of hope in Los Angeles to brave men and women seeking to transform their lives after gang-involvement and incarceration. Each year, we provide support to nearly 9,000 individuals through job training and free services such as tattoo removal, mental health services, GED classes, legal services, and more. Above all, we provide space for our clients to heal from intergenerational cycles of violence in a community of radical compassion. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you’d like to help provide second chances to brave men and women and their families, visit our website and stand with us at the link in our bio. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📷 Credit: The Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

It’s not the first time Harry and Meghan are helping others, especially during the coronavirus outbreak. They are doing great things for their community, and show they are here to help. It was a great initiative from the couple; we hope to see more of them.
