LOS ANGELES, Ca. - First it was water for Flint, now Jaden Smith is using his platform to offer homeless free vegan meals.
On July 8 the rapper turned 21 years old and celebrated his birthday in the most selfless way possible. He launched ‘I Love You Restaurant,’ a pop-up food truck founded on the bases of “giving people what they deserve” by providing free vegan meals to feed the homeless.
One of the nation’s largest homeless populations in on Skid Row in downtown Los Angeles, and that is exactly where Jaden set up shop for the launch of the food truck.
He took to Instagram to make the announcement with a picture of the truck and wrote “this is the first of many.”
Later, he posted a video showing a long line of people waiting to comp their meal.
