The Duchess of Sussex reads a book for baby Archie to raise funds for COVID-19
Updated | By Poelano Malema
The Duchess of Sussex has a very special way of bonding with her son Archie - reading a book while raising money to support the less fortunate.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's son recently celebrated his first birthday on 6 May.
Like most parents, the Duchess of Sussex ensured that Archie's birthday was special. She read 'Duck! Rabbit!', which Archie seemed to enjoy.

Meghan was also doing this to help raise funds for struggling children and families around the globe.
As the world battles the coronavirus pandemic, thousands of poor families have been struggling to feed themselves.
This is because the virus has led to so many people losing their jobs and their loved ones.
A charity organisation called, ‘Save With Stories’, has a great initiative that is aimed at helping struggling children around the world and feeding families.
The organisation teamed up with Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex, and other celebrities to read books to children in order to raise funds.
“Launched in the US by Jennifer Garner and Amy Adams and led in the UK by our amazing Ambassador, Poppy Delevigne, every donation to Save with Stories will help raise urgent funds for the children and families who’ve been hardest hit by the coronavirus crisis, both in the UK and around the world.
“We’ll regularly share videos of your favourite people reading beautiful children’s books – perfect for firing up kids’ imaginations and giving grown-ups the chance to take a breath while they’re stuck at home,” the organisation states.
The organisation supports families by providing several essential items. These include “supermarket vouchers, early learning resources like books and toys, and essential household items, such as cots and high chairs, that help parents create a home fit for children to flourish in.”
