Prominent philanthropist Jean Shafiroff journeyed to
London to meet
His Royal Highness The Duke of Sussex (Prince
Harry) in support of
Walking With The Wounded, a
charitable organization providing the pathway for vulnerable
veterans to re-integrate back into society. Opening remarks
were delivered by Prince Harry at the prestigious
annual charity event, welcoming London dignitaries,
wounded servicemen, and a select few notable supporters, by
invitation only. Despite a recent injury, Shafiroff showed
her moral and financial support at the private event for 40
people only at the newly reopened
Mandarin Oriental Hyde
Park Hotel
in Central London.
Notable attendees included:
His Royal Highness the Duke
of Sussex (Prince Harry)
, Jean Shafiroff, Ed Parker, Scott
Elkins and Susan Walton.
During her visit to London, Jean Shafiroff also received a
private tour of
The Royal Hospital Chelsea, from Executive
Director Gary Lashko and Philanthropic Consultant
Scott Elkins,
where she has donated significantly in
support of the Chelsea Pensioners,
comprised solely
of a select group of retired solders of the British Army.
Reflecting on the tireless service of The Royal Hospital
Chelsea, which was founded in 1682,
Jean was proud to
make a personal visit to the comfortable and welcoming
retirement home of the iconic British soldiers. Her gracious
contribution will help to offer sock aid kits to those who
have had hip replacements, crafting and hobby tools for
elderly dementia patients and various daily excursions and
care for all patients.
