Sentebale: A legacy of love and support
Founded in 2006 by Prince Harry and his dear friend Prince Seeiso, Sentebale, meaning "forget-me-not," has been a beacon of hope for children affected by HIV/AIDS in Lesotho. This trip, Harry's first since 2018, is set to shine a spotlight on the charity's impactful work, celebrating its achievements and rallying new support.
A week of meaningful engagements
From visiting Sentebale centres to marking Lesotho's 200th anniversary, Harry and Seeiso are on a mission to showcase the charity's vital work. Their itinerary includes a reception with South Africa-based stakeholders and a panel discussion on philanthropy with a twist, emphasizing action over words.
Prince Seeiso couldn't hide his excitement, declaring the community's joy at welcoming back Harry, affectionately known as Mohale, meaning “warrior” in Sesotho. Harry's affection for Lesotho and its people shines through, with the Duke expressing his deep connection to the country and its resilient spirit.

A lasting impression
Harry's bond with Lesotho dates back to 2004, when a young prince was moved by the challenges faced by AIDS orphans and traumatized youth. This profound experience laid the groundwork for Sentebale, a testament to Harry's enduring commitment to the kingdom's children.
As Harry continues his philanthropic journey, his actions speak volumes about the power of royal influence for good. His visit not only highlights the challenges faced by southern Africa's next generation but also the potential for meaningful change through compassion, friendship, and dedicated action.
