The "Where's Meghan" Question Has Been Definitively Answered ...

[MrsMaxDeWinter]

She's been busy!

I hope that those who expressed concern will be happy to know that she has been working with the Archewell team on their just released Impact Report.

Meghan and Harry are polarising figures but there is no doubt that they have galvanising power to get projects, both little and big, off the ground.

Harry, with William and Kate, was a co-founder of the Royal Foundation in 2011. They had a start-up fund of just under 5 million pounds, of which 1.3 million pounds was given away in grants.

10 yrs later, Harry and Meghan set up Archewell, with start up funds of 13 million dollars, and give away three million dollars in grants.

As with both foundations, the reserve is carried over.

The range of their projects is interesting, from working with the Vaccine Alliance to raise private sector contributions to distribute vaccines, endowing academic fellowships, working with partners in resettling refugees from Ukraine and Afghanistan, working with World Central Kitchens, to smaller projects like the Uvalde community playground and park and a really cute project to a small charity that gives free hair braiding to young black girls in Texas.

I am so pleased for them, their advisors and staff as this is a dream start for any start up. I have long been sceptical that they may have spread themselves too thinly, so I am glad to see they are now focusing on just three areas, as they find their groove.

@Roussette

The poster is scraping barrel as you well know. It started off as a discussion about Archewell but her criticism is getting pettier and pettier the emptier her bag gets and the more robust pushback she gets. The Markles, the Argentine job, all have been brought in as points of attack. Next she will be moaning that when Meghan was 2, she threw blueberries on the floor that Samantha had to clean up 40 years ago in 1983. 😅

@MrsMaxDeWinter

why don’t you just think before posting nonsense, then I wouldn’t have to waste my time pointing out how wrong those statements are

Did the impact statement include the 40 :40 initiative ?

People all over the world are having to choose betwenn eating and heating. Nothing else to say!

Not to dampen your passion, but people in Africa, Latin America and Asia are generally not worried about heating as the climate does not require it.

So the choice between "eating and heating" while paramount in the UK, is not one faced by the majority of the world's population.

That aside, you are right that there are more pressing matters in the world.

It’s so weird on here sometimes. I can’t believe someone’s started a thread pretending they are pr agents for William and Harry and posting about them like this then declaring them to be so pleased. Like they are their mum or something.

honestlh such random weird behaviour.’

😂 agree! It’s odd! And I think you’re on to something about them pretending to be their pr agents 😂

@MrsMaxDeWinter your obsession with Meghan is fascinating.

OK I see what you mean. Don't the see how priviledged they are? I can't believe it!! Never having to worry about money.

Never having to think about money or buy "out of date food". I will say that they disgust me! All they do is moan and moan about silly little things!

Exactly - and yet they expect sympathy from people with actual struggles.

Deranged is the word😁

oh, the irony

@milti 😁.

I would be really interested to see their donations to charity - given they based arch well in ( is it Denver? ) where famously it is hard to see the accounts - I could be wrong here - probably )

Given how much money they are earning - I would like to see more transparent donations to charity - but up to them. What I do not like is - we are earning a fortune and we contribute relatively little so that we can say we are philanthroprists - This may be untrue. But I think they should be very much clearer about what they earn - what they keep and what they genuinely give to good causes.

Not my word, that was Justine talking about the deluge of anti-Meghan posts😀

🤦‍♀️

@BasiliskStare i expect they give away the bare minimum of other peoples money and little to none of their own - 5% is the oegal
minimum in Delaware

@milti - yes Delaware - I got that wrong - but my DH works for a US co. and Delaware I think can be somewhere where tax / companies do not be so transparent . His company is far from that - But then we are not trading on the RF. ha ha

@milti 😂

68% of Fortune 500 companies and 93% of all U.S.-based initial public offerings are all registered in Delaware - Forbes report that this is for tax benefits, privacy, expediency, simplified structure and the corporation court.

I have adapted Darwin ;) And stand by my comment that some genes should not be passed down.

I think the treatment of Harry and Meghan says a lot more about the state of this country than their behaviour. Are they saints? Absolutely not. They are just normal human beings who have fallen out with family and who are trying to get by. Big family breakdowns are rarely pretty or rational, I see nothing different here.

@MrsMaxDeWinter 'Not to dampen your passion, but people in Africa, Latin America and Asia are generally not worried about heating as the climate does not require it.'
You jest, surely. For example, that well known balmy spot, Siberia, is in Asia.

Ha ha reminds me of the pil who went on a winter break to Milan and took shorts and sandals 🤣

Morning megs and aich
Or your employee !

Jesus Christ, the ignorance on here 🤦‍♀️

You are absolutely correct. Because every family argument culminates in a published book, media wailing and whingeing to the world. I’m clearly doing it all wrong because I tend to keep it limited to a bitchfest down the pub.

I'll bet she has tons of books on royalty
