Meghan Markle And Prince Harry Highlight Charities For 12 Days Of Christmas

It's a surprise to absolutely nobody that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are using the upcoming holiday season to bring awareness to some of their favorite charitable causes.

On Instagram yesterday, Duchess Meghan and Prince Harry highlighted 12 charities, keeping in the spirit of the 12 Days of Christmas.

"With the festive holiday season upon us, it's also a reminder to reflect on those in need - those who may feel lonely, hungry, homeless, or may be experiencing the holidays for the first time without loved ones," the caption read. "It's an important time of year to help those around you who may be less fortunate, or who would appreciate even the smallest act of kindness."

"Continuing our monthly tradition of highlighting accounts that do good, and inspired by the 'Twelve Days of Christmas' - we have selected twelve organisations caring for those in need - especially at this time of year," the caption continued. "There are, thankfully, so many organisations around the world doing good on global and grassroots levels, many of which are not on Instagram."

Some of the organizations that the duke and duchess chose include the Los Angeles Mission, a charity that serves homeless people in the greater Los Angeles area, and Centrepoint, a charity that Prince William patrons.

This Christmas, the Sussexes will also be skipping festivities at Sandringham to spend time with Meghan's family in California.

"The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are looking forward to extended family time towards the end of this month," a spokesperson said at the time. "Having spent the last two Christmases at Sandringham, Their Royal Highnesses will spend the holiday this year, as a new family, with the Duchess’ mother Doria Ragland."
