Thank you for these pictures fanletizia! :)

I wonder if anyone has a guest list of who attended this function? Interesting that Pavlos and Marie-Chantal and Rosario and Kyril were present. Were there any British royals present as the event was in the UK?

Also, I wonder why the launch of the Jordan River Foundation took place in London? Was it a charity event to drum up donations? Or was it an educational event to encourage volunteers?
 
I was wondering the same thing, Alexandria. Hasn't there been a previous event like this for the Jordan River Foundation in 2002? But I think that this event was in France, at the Versailles.

Anyway, I love the shape and cut of her dress and from the bottom down it really is lovely but I hate the edging around the arms and neck.
 
Rania, Rosario and MC all look great!
 
wow I like the dress,I haven't seen her wearing a simple black dress in a while.

The Jordan River Foundation is linking up with the NSPCC, a child safety charity here in the UK. I presume that's why the event took place here.
The NSPCC's website:

"She has not shied away from controversy: she will be in London this week to sign an agreement linking her charity, the Jordan River Foundation, to the NSPCC."

Lovely photos, fanletizia.

All the royals in the photos look great. The royals from greece, They are the ones sitting next to Q.R?? Well, I hope the Queen still makes it to Canada. Great photos by the Way!
 
All I can say about that black dress is wow!
I love coming back to such stunning pictures so thank you to those who posted them.
It's so wonderful to see the Jordan River Foundation doing so well. It was founded in 1995 and has been chaired by Queen Rania since she was a princess. Its great to see it expand outside of Jordan.

Here's the JRF's website:

That's a step in the right direction.
Thanks for the article.
 
Great Gala pictures:)
I thought The River Foundation was first originally founded by QNoor, and then handed over to Princess Rania then, is it true?
 
Anyone know if they have any vacations planned? Where do they usually go? Within Middle East or some where else? Thanks.:)
 
Rania was very beautiful and nice in London. The black dress was fantastic.
