Harry and Meghan's charity builds Texas playground four months after school shooting

ok.co.uk:

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have built a playground for children in Uvalde, Texas, four months on from the harrowing mass shooting that shook the globe.

In May 2022, a gunman opened fire in a school and claimed the lives of 21 victims, before turning the gun on himself. Soon after the devastating ordeal, mum-of-two Meghan made a low-key trip to the Texan city where she paid her respects to the deceased.

Now Meghan, 41, and husband Prince Harry, 38, have continued to show their solidarity for the Uvalde community by building a new children’s park there through their Archewell Foundation, which has been named The DeLeon Park.

According to royal journalist and writer Omid Scobie, Archewell director James Holt said of the project: “Our hope is that this special project can help the community heal, and be home to imagination, games and play for many years to come.” At the time of her visit to the primary school the shooting occurred at, Meghan cut a casual figure in a pair of jeans, t-shirt, trainers and cap.
