Ella’s Angels Thanksgiving Meal Drive – Free Meals for Families in Need

Event Details

1144 Olive Ave, Long Beach, CA, 90813

Ella’s Angels, a youth-led 501(c)(3) founded by 15-year-old Ella Shahbazian, is hosting a Thanksgiving meal drive to support families in our community who are struggling due to rising grocery costs, recent loss of SNAP benefits, or other financial hardship.

We are providing full Thanksgiving meals at no cost.
Each meal includes turkey, sides, and dessert — everything needed to celebrate with dignity and joy.

Last year, Ella and her volunteers helped feed over 100 families. This year, the need is even greater, and we are expanding to reach more households across Long Beach and surrounding areas.
