Prince William Polo Fundraiser Tops £14 Million

Prince William took part in the annual Out-Sourcing Inc. Royal Charity Polo Cup at Guards Polo Club near Windsor, marking his 14th appearance at the event. This year's match contributed to the total funds raised by William's polo efforts, now exceeding £14 million (around $18 million), benefiting 10 charities selected by the Prince and Princess of Wales. The event featured a silent auction and lunch to further boost fundraising efforts. Kate Middleton remained absent as she continues her gradual return to public duties following cancer treatment. The funds are particularly significant for charities supporting mental health and addiction, areas that often face funding challenges. The royal couple also participated in the French state visit earlier in the week.
