Prince Harry’s charity cuts funds for NGO that urged Gaza truce

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Archwell foundation, which partners with organisations to drive change, halted donations to a Muslim women’s group in the US after their founder called for a Gaza ceasefire and denounced Israel’s war.

The foundation, established in 2020, cut ties with the Milwaukee Muslim Women’s Coalition (MMWC) earlier this week after they were made aware of a previous blog post from the group’s founder.

In February 2024, Janan Najeeb, the founder of MMWC, penned an online post in the Wisconsin Muslim Journal, where she called for a ceasefire in Gaza, and "an end to arming the apartheid state of Israel".
