The Royal Foundation is a charitable organization that was established by Prince William and Prince Harry in 2009. Its mission is to tackle important societal issues and make a positive impact through various charitable initiatives. Initially named the Foundation of Prince William and Prince Harry, it later became the main charitable vehicle for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (Prince William and Kate Middleton) as well.
The Royal Foundation operates by bringing together key stakeholders, charities, and organizations to collaborate on specific projects and campaigns. It focuses on several core areas, including mental health, conservation, veterans' welfare, and early childhood development.
The foundation engages in partnerships and collaborations with other charitable organizations, government entities, and private sector actors to drive meaningful change. It supports initiatives that promote innovative solutions, raise awareness, provide resources, and create a lasting impact on the targeted areas of need.
Over the years, the Royal Foundation has involved various individuals and organizations. Initially, it primarily focused on the charitable work of Prince William and Prince Harry. However, with the involvement of Kate Middleton and later Meghan Markle, it expanded its scope and impact.
The foundation's initiatives often involve partnerships with like-minded organizations and subject matter experts. It leverages the influence and resources of the royal family to support and amplify the efforts of these organizations, bringing attention to important causes and driving positive change.
The Royal Foundation has played a significant role in addressing societal challenges and has become an important platform for the charitable work of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and, previously, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
