The Duchess of Sussex visited
Project Fearless which is a Dutch non-profit initiative designed to empower and
equip girls with the tools they need to conquer every aspect of their lives.
Founded by Mérida Miller, the organization aims to redefine what it means to be
a girl in the modern world.
Photos shared by Project
Fearless on Monday showed Meghan getting stuck in with her coaching session. In
one photo, the Duchess was sat in an intimate circle, talking with the girls
around her. Another photo showed Meghan writing enthusiastically on a
whiteboard.
The initiative shared the
photos to mark its third birthday. Taking to the social media platform, Project
Fearless penned: “Today is the day! Project Fearless is officially 3 years
old!
Acknowledging their milestone
achievements, the Dutch organization described how Meghan gave the girls
“inspiring and encouraging feedback on their sustainable business
pitches.”
In a statement released by
Archewell, Meghan said: “Safe, supportive spaces like Project Fearless
allow girls the opportunity to express themselves, build each other up, gain
resilience and tackle new challenges.”
Mérida Miller, the founder of
Project Fearless, said: “The duchess’ visit was a brilliant way to
celebrate the impact Project Fearless has made over the last three years,
introducing the girls to an accessible role model who is making a difference
and using her voice.”
The revelation comes after
Meghan and Prince Harry visited the Netherlands in April for his 2022 Invictus
Games.
Prince Harry founded the Games
in 2014 as a means to inspire recovery and support rehabilitation for wounded,
injured and sick servicemen and women.
Speaking of his brainchild,
Prince Harry said: “These Games have shone a spotlight on the
‘unconquerable’ character of servicemen and women, their families and the
‘Invictus’ spirit. These Games have been about seeing guys sprinting for the
finish line and then turning round to clap the last man in… These Games have
shown the very best of the human spirit.”
