OUR PRESIDENT AND FOUNDER
His Majesty King Charles lll, the former Prince of Wales, is the president and founder of Prince’s Trust Canada. He is a social entrepreneur and leader in identifying charitable needs and providing innovative solutions that address those needs.

To reflect and inspire the world to action, while aiming for a green recovery, I would ask you to join me… for a more sustainable future – socially, environmentally and economically.
For fifty years, His Majesty King Charles lll, has used his unique position to champion action for a sustainable future. In 2011, HM The King, along with Founding Patrons Galen and The Hon. Hilary Weston, established our organization. Its founding was motivated by HM The King’s strong connection to the country and his deep appreciation for Canadians.
HM The King has launched the Terra Carta as part of the Sustainable Markets Initiative.
