Timed to the visit, his and Meghan Markle\u2019s Archewell Foundation announced they have donated $500,000 to three organizations supporting injured children from Gaza and Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"1\" class=\"css-i9p093 emevuu60\">\u201cNo single organization can solve this alone,\u201d Prince Harry said in a statement today. \u201cGaza now has the highest density of child amputees in the world and in history. It takes partnerships across government, science, medicine, humanitarian response and advocacy to ensure children survive and can recover after blast injuries.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"2\" class=\"css-i9p093 emevuu60\">The three donations include: $200,000 to the World Health Organization (WHO) to support medical evacuations from Gaza to Jordan, $150,000 to the Save the Children to provide ongoing humanitarian support in Gaza, and $150,000 to the Centre of Blast Injury Studies \u201cto help its efforts to develop prostheses that can support injured children, particularly those children injured from the conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza.\u201d The news comes a day after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.townandcountrymag.com\/society\/tradition\/a66023899\/prince-harry-charity-donation-september-2025\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-vars-ga-outbound-link=\"https:\/\/www.townandcountrymag.com\/society\/tradition\/a66023899\/prince-harry-charity-donation-september-2025\/\" data-vars-ga-ux-element=\"Hyperlink\" data-vars-ga-call-to-action=\"Harry announced a $1.5 million personal donation\" data-node-id=\"2.1\" class=\"body-link css-14frelc emevuu60\" rel=\"noopener\">Harry announced a $1.5 million personal donation<\/a> to BBC\u2019s Children in Need.<\/p>\n<p><img draggable=\"true\" alt=\"Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex Attends Invictus Engagements In London\" title=\"Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex Attends Invictus Engagements In London\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"5466\" height=\"3644\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" style=\"color:transparent;width:100%;height:auto;\"   src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/b1087b79-6a25-4822-8b67-bb4da3d3a571.jpeg\" class=\"css-0 e1g79fud0\"\/>Pool\/\/Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>The Duke of Sussex examines a prosthetic limb during a visit to the Centre for Blast Injury Studies.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"5\" class=\"css-i9p093 emevuu60\">At CIS today, Prince Harry was joined by Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, chief of the WHO. \u201cI\u2019m really pleased about what he\u2019s doing, especially for the children of Gaza. It\u2019s not the money, it\u2019s also the passion and commitment I think I see. And we have met a number of times and his commitment is very, very clear, and I really appreciate that.\u201d Ghebreyesus added, \u201cI hope his contribution will also bring or motivate others to contribute.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"7\" class=\"css-i9p093 emevuu60\">The Prince\u2019s involvement spotlighting the injured children of Gaza, Ghebreyesus said, is \u201cvery important.\u201d He continued, \u201cHe\u2019s a known figure and his influence is big. So he can help in influencing and others could follow suit. But at the same time, to address the problem we see in Gaza, we need everybody\u2019s participation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"8\" class=\"css-i9p093 emevuu60\">The Duke also participated in a roundtable discussion with representatives from the WHO and Save the Children to discuss the issues facing children in Gaza. \u201cEvery time I return here, I\u2019m struck by the commitment, innovation, and compassion that drives your work,\u201d Harry said. \u201cFrom the labs I opened over a decade ago, to today\u2019s focus on prosthetics for children, the progress and dedication are extraordinary. The voices we heard today remind us that behind every dataset is a child \u2014 a child in pain, in need of care, and deserving of a future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img draggable=\"true\" alt=\"Prince Harry visits Center for Blast Injury Studies in London\" title=\"Prince Harry visits Center for Blast Injury Studies in London\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"3674\" height=\"2449\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" style=\"color:transparent;width:100%;height:auto;\"   src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/c9399a13-f6eb-4288-85b1-d04c5445b1e3.jpeg\" class=\"css-0 e1g79fud0\"\/>Anadolu\/\/Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>Prince Harry departs from the Royal British Legion Centre for Blast Injury Studies at Imperial College London.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"10\" class=\"css-i9p093 emevuu60\">Prince Harry\u2019s comments on Gaza are the most explicit on the ongoing conflict in Israel-Palestine from a member of the British royal family this year.

There is a desperate need for increased humanitarian support to Gaza. It\u2019s critical that aid gets in and the hostages are released.
