About Sentebale:
Sentebale was founded by Prince Harry and Prince Seeiso from the Lesotho Royal family in response to the plight of the neediest and most vulnerable of Lesotho's people.

• Sentebale was founded by Prince Harry and Prince Seeiso from the Lesotho Royal family in response to the plight of the neediest and most vulnerable of Lesotho's children, many who are victims of extreme poverty and Lesotho’s HIV/AIDs epidemic.
• In February, Prince Harry visited Lesotho to see the difference Sentebale’s programmes were making to the children. At the end of his visit, he attended the Sentebale Gala Dinner in Johannesburg which was to mark the launch of a major fundraising campaign to build the Mamohato Centre for children and young people infected with, or affected by HIV.
• On 15th April, Sentebale will announce Nacho Figueras as a Sentebale Ambassador. Nacho has played in several Sentebale charity matches with Prince Harry in the US and has already shown great dedication to this new role, contributing his time and energy to help make a real difference to the lives of Lesotho's most vulnerable children. He is an enthusiastic and devoted supporter who will be a huge asset to Sentebale.
• Lesotho’s main operations are based in Lesotho with the fundraising and management team based in London, headed up by Chief Executive, Cathy Ferrier. Both Princes remain active patrons of Sentebale.
