The Prince of Wales has gotten a lot of criticism over the years, especially because of his failed marriage. His critics, especially the nutty Dianamanics, have tended to overlook all the positive work he has done. The Prince of Wales' Trust has done so much to help disadvantaged youth in the UK. The trust has provided more opportunities for employment for youth than any British government scheme.
His Foundation for the Built Environment is helping to rebuild several communities devastated by Hurricane Katrina.

It is amazing what the the Prince of Wales supports and does to help the less fortunate and the environment.
The Prince of Wales' Foundation even has an office in Washington, D.C. (888 17th Street, NW, Suite 201, Washington, D.C. 20006).
It is unlikely that the Crown Prince of Denmark or the Prince of Asturias could get the Dalai Lama to honor one of their projects. The Prince of Wales knows how to cultivate and bring together people from around the world for this Rain Forest project.
Marlene,
ReplyDeleteYour comment is accurate and true.
I think that Prince Charles has done the very best of the opportunities that have been given to him, in the position that he has been born into. It is a very different situation to my own life circumstances.
Thanks for all your useful references.
Sincerely.
