Meghan Markle donates 11,500 euros to the British organization Himmah
The Duchess of Sussex has donated the proceeds from her cookbook to this community organization that works to prevent poverty, racism and social exclusion.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's interview with Oprah Winfrey remains an inexhaustible source of news and commentary, especially in the UK. The pressure from the tabloids that Markle complained about has only increased, but the latest news about the duchess seems to give a respite to the criticism she receives. The Royal Foundation to Himmah, a UK-based organization, has announced in a statement that Meghan Markle has donated € 11,500 to this project that addresses poverty, racism and social exclusion.
The donation comes from proceeds from her popular cookbook, Together: Our Community Cookbook, which she published in 2018 to help Hubb Community Kitchen. With this donation, Meghan makes it clear that, despite the distance from her, she has decided not to disassociate herself from some of the projects to which she was linked during the time that she lived in London and that she served as representative of the British crown. .
The Himmah community organization works to provide more than 650 emergency food packages to those most in need and serves hot meals daily. Meghan's donation will go to the group's food bank, and will also go towards purchasing equipment and providing funds for Salaam Shalom Kitchen, the only Muslim and Jewish community kitchen based in the UK. Meghan decided to make this donation to Himmah to "continue transforming lives through the power of cooking and food."
With this donation, Himmah will continue to work in the Hyson Green area of Nottingham, one of the most deprived areas of the city. An economic contribution that makes it clear, as Meghan and Harry assured after leaving to live in the United States, that her future will be linked to solidarity work and to providing support to all those causes that touch her heart.
