Out of those charities, Prince Harry and Meghan focused on Centrepoint, a charity that gives back to the homeless, of which Prince William is a patron. The brothers took over the role from their late mother, Princess Diana.

The Duchess of Sussex also wanted to choose charities that are close to her heart. She wanted to include the Los Angeles Mission, which combats homelessness in her hometown. Other charities include the Salvation Army UK, Scotty’s Little Soldiers, and Trussell Trust. The couple said that the holiday season has given them “a reminder to reflect on those in need.” They want to help out “those who may feel lonely, hungry, homeless, or may be experiencing the holidays for the first time without loved ones.”
