Prince Albert II makes a generous donation to the City of Philadelphia

Prince Albert II is currently in Pennsylvania, where his mother, Princess Grace, was born. The Sovereign is with his cousin, John B. Kelly III, participating in a greening initiative in Philadelphia. Prince Albert II donated $130,000 to the initiative through his foundation. To launch the initiative, Prince Albert II and his cousin symbolically planted the first tree in the Williams Moore Ride Memorial Park, which will soon have a wooded area.

Philadelphia launched the Philly Tree Plan earlier this year as the city’s first-ever strategic urban forest plan.  John B. Kelly III is the president of the American branch of the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation.
