NEW YORK (AP) β€” Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, encouraged women to find inspiration to fight for equity as she accepted the Ms. Foundation Women of Vision Award Tuesday night, with Black Voters Matter co-founder LaTosha Brown. β€œIt’s never too late to start,” Meghan said at the Ziegfeld Ballroom in Manhattan. β€œYou can be the visionary of your own life… There is still so much work to be done.” Her acceptance speech closed out the Ms. Foundation for Women’s annual gala, part of the nation’s oldest women’s foundation celebration of its 50th anniversary. The gala also kicked off the foundation’s largest fundraising campaign ever β€” $100 million over the next 12 months β€” that will be used to further the organization’s equity-centered initiatives and its mission of advancing women’s collective power.
