Default Countess Alexandra's Charities and Patronages

According to the Danish Royal Family's website Alexandra is patroness of many organizations but it only lists the following, Danish Red Cross Youth, Danish Association of the Blind, The Animal Foundation, ARKEN Museum of Modern Art, and Danish UNICEF Committee. Does anyone know what other organizations Alexandra is patroness of?

Princess Alexandra is a patron of many organizations and unions in Denmark.
If one would visit the Danish Royal Family website www.kongehuset.dk you would see on her page all of the organizations she is related with.

Thanks for posting the current list. It is nice to see that she is still involved with a wide variety of causes, especially those that deal with children and animals (although they are all excellent causes).
