The Foundation’s aim is to prevent drowning throughout the world and inspire children through sport — values that are very important to Princess Charlene.

Thanks to the Foundation, over 1.2 million people have benefitted from programs in 43 countries via 520 different projects.

For example, the Princess Charlene Foundation has supported the creation of a mobile swimming pool for communities with no suitable facilities, provided swimming lessons for children in Sospel, and donated bicycles to schoolgirls in Cambodia to help them get around.
