Celebrities, local officials, and community leaders gathered on Los Angeles’s Skid Row to serve Thanksgiving meals to residents living amid one of the largest homelessness crises in the United States. Long lines formed outside shelters and outreach centers as volunteers distributed hot meals, offered basic supplies, and spoke with individuals experiencing chronic housing insecurity.
The annual Thanksgiving outreach event comes at a time when Los Angeles continues to face rising homelessness, with tens of thousands living in shelters, temporary facilities, or on the streets. City officials said the gathering is meant to highlight both community solidarity and the urgent need for long-term solutions, including affordable housing and expanded mental health support.
