哈里王子改变了其母亲黛安娜纪念基金的用途,将资金从他联合创办的Sentebale慈善机构转向博茨瓦纳的象牙无国界基金会。[1]这一转变源于2025年哈里与Sentebale董事会主席Sophie Chandauka的关系破裂,导致哈里从慈善机构董事会辞职。[1]随后,Sentebale以诽谤罪起诉哈里。[1]
根据皇家基金会的财务记录,Sentebale自2020年起共获得来自黛安娜基金的£43,866($83,777),最后一笔£16,743在2024年支付。[1]2025年,哈里的黛安娜基金份额£5,432首次全部转入象牙无国界基金会。[1]这笔资金被用于在奥卡瓦戈三角洲为两只大象安装卫星追踪项圈,分别以哈里的两个孩子Archie和Lilibet命名,其中一只由Archie选择蓝色项圈,另一只由Lilibet选择紫色项圈。[1]
同时,皇家基金会2025年的资金规模显著增长。[1]年度账户显示收入从£12.2百万增至£19.6百万,其中美国皇家基金会友好协会的捐赠近£8.7百万,几乎是2024年£4.9百万的两倍。[1]
Prince Harry has diverted funding from his mother's memorial foundation away from Sentebale, the charity he co-founded, toward Elephants Without Borders in Botswana [1]. The shift follows a 2025 breakdown in his relationship with Sentebale's board chair Sophie Chandauka, which prompted Harry to resign from the charity's board and led to Sentebale subsequently suing him for defamation [1].
The Diana Memorial Fund had previously supported Sentebale since 2020, with cumulative donations totaling £43,866 ($83,777), the final payment of £16,743 made in 2024 [1]. In 2025, Harry's allocation from the fund—£5,432—was redirected entirely to Elephants Without Borders for the first time [1]. The diverted funds were used to install satellite tracking collars on two elephants in the Okavango Delta, with Prince Archie selecting a blue collar and Princess Lilibet choosing a purple one for the animals bearing their names [1].
The redirection coincides with significant growth in Harry's charitable operations through the Royal Foundation, whose 2025 annual accounts show revenue increased from £12.2 million to £19.6 million [1]. The Foundation's US-based affiliate contributed nearly £8.7 million in 2025, nearly double the £4.9 million donated in 2024 [1].
