  • ღ CHARITABLE WORK ღ

    From a young age, The Duchess had a keen awareness of social issues and actively participated in charitable work. Aged 11 she successfully campaigned for a company to alter their television advert, which had used sexist language to sell washing-up liquid. She also volunteered at a soup kitchen in Skid Row, Los Angeles from the age of 13-17. She continued to volunteer at the soup kitchen when she would return home to Los Angeles until the age of 22.

    These early experiences helped to shape her lifelong commitment to causes such as social justice and women’s empowerment.

    While filming in Toronto, The Duchess actively volunteered at a Canadian soup kitchen from 2011-2013. She also established the program at her place of work to ensure that leftover meals from the set were donated to local homeless shelters.

    ღ ONE YOUNG WORLD ღ

    The Duchess became involved with the organisation One Young World in 2014 when she was asked to become a Counsellor for the charity. One Young World is a global forum that gathers together young leaders in order to develop solutions to some of the world’s most pressing issues. She attended panels for One Young World in Dublin and Ottawa.

    ღ UN WOMEN ღ

    In 2015, The Duchess became the UN Women’s Advocate for Women’s Political Participation and Leadership. In this role, she gave a speech on the importance of gender equality on International Women’s Day for UN Women in New York City. Ahead of her appointment to this role, she spent time at the UN’s New York office to understand the organisation’s day-to-day work before embarking on a learning mission to Rwanda. On this trip The Duchess met female parliamentarian leaders in Kigali and visited Gihembe refugee camp, where women were working on leadership and empowerment at a grassroots level.

    ღ WORLD VISION ღ

    In addition to her role with UN Women and One Young World, The Duchess became a Global Ambassador for World Vision in 2016. As part of her work with the charity she visited Rwanda on a clean water campaign that would work to allow young children to continue their education.

    The Duchess undertook a second learning mission with the organisation when she visited India with World Vision to bring a greater awareness to girls’ lack of access to education. In the slum communities of Mumbai, The Duchess witnessed the work of the Myna Mahila Foundation who empower women through access to menstrual hygiene products and employment opportunities. Struck by her experience, she wrote an op-ed for Time Magazine about the stigmatisation of menstrual health management and its long term hindrance to girls’ education.

    The Myna Mahila Foundation was one of the charities chosen by the couple to benefit from charitable donations made for the Royal Wedding.

    ღ ACCESS TO EDUCATION ღ

    As a university graduate, The Duchess is a strong advocate of accessible education for all. She wants to ensure that educational opportunities are available for all people, regardless of gender or socioeconomic background. Since becoming Patron of the Association of Commonwealth Universities, The Duchess has met students, academics, and staff from ACU member universities across the Commonwealth to learn more about the vital work they do to address global challenges. This includes announcing new Gender Grants for ACU member universities in the Pacific and South Africa to fund new learning initiatives aimed at empowering female university staff and promoting gender equality.

    ღ SUPPORT FOR WOMEN ღ

    The Duchess has a longstanding track record of working in the space of women’s empowerment both in her local community as well as abroad. She has been involved with several other projects in this sector, including a project whilst at university which provided prom dresses for young women in underprivileged areas. In recent years, The Duchess has travelled to India and Rwanda working on projects to mobilise women in challenging or marginalised situations to see their full potential.
