Attending their first public engagement since the royal wedding, William, Duke of Cambridge, and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, made a grand arrival at the Absolute Return for Kids (ARK) 10th Anniversary Gala Dinner on Thursday (June 9).
The well-dressed duo took to London's Perk's Field venue for the dinner on behalf of the Foundation of Prince William and Prince Harry, which raises millions of pounds for causes associated with young people around the world.
With William also set to deliver a speech, a spokesman for ARK said he's delighted about the newlyweds' decision to attend, adding, “Over the past 10 years, ARK's programmes in the UK, Southern Africa, eastern Europe and India have transformed the lives of more than 200,000 children."
“In tackling access to health care in sub-Saharan Africa, improving educational opportunities in the UK, US and India, and giving children the chance to live in a caring and nurturing environment in Eastern Europe, ARK is helping to overcome some of the most severe blights on children's lives.”
