Jaden Smith Details Plan for Skid Row Facility to Serve Three Free Meals Daily

He describes the project as a long-term goal with no site secured.

Overview

  • In a February TikTok, the 27-year-old outlined his dream of a Skid Row building in downtown Los Angeles, home to nearly 4,000 unhoused people, serving free breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day.
  • He said the envisioned space would also create jobs and cultivate a supportive atmosphere for the community.
  • Smith acknowledged there is no brick-and-mortar location yet and asked for community support to help secure one.
  • The effort builds on his I LOVE YOU initiative, including a 2019 vegan food truck and a 2025 holiday activation at Homeless Health Care LA’s ReFresh Spot.
  • Billboard reports that merch sales fund meals and that unspecified corporate donors back the nonprofit, which lists a permanent HQ and eventual expansion as goals.
