Princess Eugenie Will Follow Sarah Ferguson’s Footsteps After Royal Wedding This Way
Princess Eugenie will follow in her mom Sarah Ferguson’s footsteps after her wedding to Jack Brooksbank on Oct. 19.
Emily Hodgkin, a journalist for Express, noted that Princess Eugenie has decided to involve herself in more charity work just like her mom. The Duchess of York’s charity work has helped change the lives of many.
Ferguson most recently announced the merging between her foundation Children in Crisis and Street Child UK. On her Twitter account, the mom of two said that the partnership is aimed at educating and helping 10,000 children who are living in poverty at the moment.
Children in Crisis was set up in 1993, and the charity focuses on the well-being of children in various locations including Afghanistan and the Congo.
Ferguson serves as the founder and Life President of the organization. Prince Andrew’s ex-wife is also a patron of the Teenage Cancer Trust. She is also a founding supporter of the American Cancer Society’s Great American Weigh In.
Earlier this week, Princess Eugenie revealed that she will be actively involved in the Anti-Slavery Collective charity after her wedding at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle. During an interview on the Global GoalsCast, the 28-year-old royal shared more details about her work.
“We realized that it’s [slavery] a huge problem and it happens all across the world and even an hour from where you live. We decided to read as much as we can, meet as many people as we can, talk to policymakers, change makers, governments, millennials, and as many people as possible to really learn about this, but also to see how we can affect change,” she said.
“If you could save one person’s life, or if you can help one person, support one charity, then you’re doing something incredible, and you’re really changing the world,” she added.
The Anti-Slavery Collective’s website states, “Who are we? An independent collective focused on spotlighting modern slavery as a global epidemic.”
