Chris Martin Helps Prince Harry Raise Funds At Sentebale Fundraiser Concert!

Prince Harry is dapper as he hits the stage to give a speech at the 2016 Sentebale Concert held at Kensington Palace on Tuesday (June 28) in London, England.

The 31-year-old royal was joined on stage by performers Chris Martin and his band Coldplay, Joss Stone, the Basotho Youth Choir, and Sentebale co-founder Prince Seeiso at the special benefit concert, which helped raised funds and awareness for the Sentebale charity.

“I know you’ve come here tonight to see some of the best entertainers on the planet. But I want to take this moment to give you something to think about,” Harry expressed during his speech (via US Weekly).

“If you have been moved by the stories that you’ve heard, please commit to taking a little bit of time to learn about the fight against HIV in places like Lesotho, throughout Africa, and here in the U.K. as well,” Harry added. “This is a topic that has drifted from the headlines, but remains an urgent challenge. In southern Africa, the epidemic remains the biggest killer of adolescents. Here in the U.K., more people have the virus than ever before. What we know is that HIV is a virus that thrives off silence and feeds on stigma. Every single one of us has a responsibility to educate ourselves. To do what we can to speak out and stamp out the silence, ignorance, and fear that the virus needs to win.”
