Here’s What Meghan Markle & Prince Harry Want You to Buy Them for Their Wedding
With the royal wedding only weeks away, we’ve been racking our brains with what to give the soon-to-be-married couple. What does one gift to the pair who has everything? A royal rule book? A corgi puppy? Excessive online coverage detailing every intimate moments of the big day?
Thankfully, Markle and Harry have shared their wedding registry with the public. “Prince Harry & Ms. Meghan Markle are incredibly grateful for the goodwill they have received since their engagement,” Kensington Palace tweeted out to the fans, “& have asked that anyone who might wish to mark the occasion of their wedding considers giving to charity, instead of sending a gift.”
The couple have personally chosen several charities, each representing an issue that the philanthropic duo are passionate about. Grab your credit card, and start donating in celebration of their fairytale happily-ever-after.
CHIVA Projects
It’s CHIVA Projects’ goal to ensure every child with HIV has the support they need to live a fulfilling, healthy life free of stigma and discrimination. “The charity helps to create a more hopeful and optimistic future for them,” the Palace wrote. “ensuring they achieve their greatest potential.”

Myna Mahila Foundation
Myna Mahila Foundation seeks to empower the young women by providing them to access to low-cost sanitary pads. Markle visited the Mumbai charity last January, and later wrote a piece on menstrual hygiene stigma for Time Magazine: “From sub-Saharan Africa to India, Iran, and several other countries, the stigma surrounding menstruation and lack of access to proper sanitation directly inhibit young women from pursuing an education,” she wrote in the piece.
Next up is @MynaMahila, which empowers women in Mumbai's slums by providing them with a trusted network, stable employment & the chance to grow as individuals & businesswomen, and breaks taboos around menstrual hygiene. https://t.co/suzul1y9cw pic.twitter.com/eIG3GP6bW7
