PRINCE HARRY AND MEGHAN MARKLE ANNOUNCE NEW COMMONWEALTH PROJECT
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may have stepped down from the royal roles, but they are still doing their part to help Commonwealth countries around the world.
World Central Kitchen, founded by chef José Andrés, shared Wednesday that they were teaming up with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s non-profit Archewell Foundation to create Community Relief Centres in regions of the world prone to climate disasters. They added that construction on the first centres in the Caribbean Commonwealth nation of Dominica has been completed.
The centre, located in a school constructed under Dominica’s climate resiliency plan to be a safe shelter against future hurricanes, installed kitchen equipment that work using solar power. They also plan to launch a culinary training program this year to equip chefs to prepare food for large numbers in an emergency.
