In Memory of Princess Diana

The Diana Princess of Wales Memorial Fund is one of the charities to benefit（获益） from the Diana Concert on 1 July. Princes William and Harry chose the Fund because it supports their mother’s favorite organizations.

The Memorial Fund welcomed the news. “We are very happy that Princes William and Harry want to help the Fund. We hope the concert is a great success.”

The Memorial Fund was set up within days of the Princess’s death in 1997 because so many people wanted to donate money. In her life Diana did a lot of work for charities. The Memorial Fund is a way of making sure that this work continued after Diana’s death.

During the first year the Fund gave money to the organizations Diana supported during her life. She was well-known for her work with poor and disabled people in the UK and in Africa. The Fund continued this work by helping poor people all over the world.

In the last ten years the Diana Princess of Wales Memorial Fund has raised millions of pounds. The Fund gave out £70 million to 350 organizations around the world. The Diana Concert takes place on 1 July 2007. The concert has been organized by Princes William and Harry to celebrate their mother’s life. 1 July is Princess Diana’s birthday and the Princes hope the concert is the “best birthday present she ever had”!

Red Ribbon Week is held every year, usually during the last week of October. It started with a police officer named “Kiki” Camarena. He was sent to Mexico in order to investigate(调查) a Mexican drug company and stayed there for four and a half years. His efforts helped put a stop to several major drug making companies. So the bosses wanted to murder the men who brought them down. When Camarena left his office for a lunch date with his wife on February 7, 1985, a car drove up and kidnapped(绑架) him, and a month later he was killed. At that time he was only 37 years old.
Shortly after his death, people in Camarena’s town began wearing red ribbons in his honor. Then Camarena’s high school friend, Henry Lozano, started Camarena Club. Hundreds of people joined the club and promised to be drug-free in order to honor the death of Camarena. And then schools in several states began to join in. Now, at the end of every October, millions of Americans wear red ribbons in memory of “Kiki” Camarena. So, in 1988, the first national Red Ribbon Week was founded in America.
Red Ribbon Week has become the largest drug education and prevention organization in the United States. It encourages communities to stand up against drugs and it encourages children to make a promise not to take drugs in their life.
