- She delivered donations, including new clothing and beauty products, provided lunch for volunteers, and assisted teens in selecting essential items from the supplies.
- Prince Harry and Meghan also made financial contributions to wildfire relief efforts through their Archewell Foundation and opened their Montecito home to evacuees.

- Meghan postponed the release of her Netflix series 'With Love, Meghan' to prioritize aiding wildfire victims, with the series now scheduled to debut in March.
