Harry and Meghan's efforts in California fires go unnoticed
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been heavily involved in helping those who have survived the five-day-old fires. However, despite the Sussexes' charitable work at the evacuation centre, the media only briefly mentioned their philanthropy.
The devastating fires raging in California are causing increasing destruction. Last night, Eastern Time, local medical services reported 16 fatalities. The damage also amounts to nearly 150 billion dollars in material losses. Unfortunately, experts agree this is not the end of the alarming calculations.
Well-known individuals largely use their influence to support those who have lost their livelihoods overnight. The attitude of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle is undoubtedly praiseworthy. They not only call through social media for financial support and participation in various fundraising efforts but have also rolled up their sleeves and moved to help those affected.
Harry and Meghan's volunteer work overlooked by one news outlet
This past Friday, the Sussexes arrived at the Pasadena Convention Centre, which serves as an evacuation centre. Alongside the California Governor's wife, Jennifer Newsom, they served meals to hundreds of Americans gathered there.
Journalists from the Fox News station arrived on the scene and conducted brief interviews with fire survivors from Los Angeles. Meanwhile, viewers could see shots prominently featuring the governor’s wife handing out food packages. The reporter did not exchange even a word with Harry and Meghan, and they barely appeared on screen at the end of the segment, embracing the evacuees who were grateful to them.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle donated to humanitarian aid through their Archewell Foundation. Additionally, they opened their nearly 40 million CAD residence in Montecito to their relatives forced to leave their homes.
