AMADE ON FACEBOOK ...but why has it only 26 Likes ??
However, there are some good images about a programme in Laos where surgeons are performing facial surgery on children.
It's called "Naitre une seconde fois" - To be born for the second time".

Caroline has worked very hard for this causes, and I´m sure she prepares herself and reads so much on the issues realted to children abuse and poor living conditions. I wishe Amade did more for children in other countries, but I guess it´s a matter of budget. Good she´s going to be awarded.

I am watching/listening to Caroline give her speech right now. In English!!! It's fantastic. I am enchanted by her voice 
I am also very intrigued by the passion with which she speaks. This is a cause very dear to her heart and it shows :)

An other gallery on the event: La princesse Caroline de Monaco radieuse, récompensée par son ami Karl Lagerfeld.
Congratulations to princess Caroline for this well deserved price! She worked a lot for Amade, I'm always impressed when I read her speeches/interviews about this subject: she knows very well what's happening to children in the world. Princess Grace would be very proud to see that her daughter did so well!

Oh my God! Thank you Thecia! Caroline speaking German. Any volunteer can gives us a clue on what she´s saying about her mother, and Otto von Habsburg? I love this woman! It seems to me she has a nice pronunciation, doen´t she?
And thanks everyone for the links!

WOW! She speaks perfect german! My deep respect for that!
She talks about AMADE. It was Grace and Otto von Habsburg who created it and he was the president of AMADE in the first years.
Karl Lagerfeld said he didn't make sacrifices in his past life but he admires people who do and did that. "We shouldn't throw money away but use money to help other people and do good things in life."
He feels honored and proud to present this award to Caroline which is more than earned.
I didn't translate it word for word. But this was mainly what Caro and Karl were talking about.

You're welcome! And thanks Smush for the translation!
It's a shame I can't seem to find a video of her speech in English. As I said, her voice is enchanting

Yes, I heard her say in an interview she could read in Spanish. I suppose she can understand and speak, although I don´t know if she´s fluent. But, it doesn´t matter anyway. She has a gift for languages and has employed her time very well.
