A princess is a female member of a royal family. She is usually the daughter of a king or queen, but can also refer to the wife of a prince. A princess is styled Her Highness and has a variety of responsibilities including acting as a role model, supporting charities and participating in public engagements.
Princess Alice of Battenberg was a well-known humanitarian who fought to make the world a better place for all people. She spent time volunteering with the Red Cross and at soup kitchens in the 1930s, but her most noteworthy act was during World War II when she helped hide a Jewish family from the Gestapo. For this, she was honored as Righteous Among the Nations by Yad Vashem.
Throughout her life, she fought for the rights of children, the homeless and those suffering from HIV/AIDS. She was also president or patron of over 100 charities, notably Centrepoint, English National Ballet, Leprosy Mission and the National Aids Trust.
Her dedication to these causes led her to be nicknamed the “princess” by those close to her. In spite of her hardships, she remained strong and never gave up on her dreams. Her final resting place was Westminster Abbey, with her favorite flowers, white lilies, spread on the top of her coffin. Her funeral was attended by millions of mourners and was a moving tribute to such a courageous woman. Her legacy will live on forever and is a reminder of how we should all treat each other.
