Her genuine warmth radiates as she engages with these young souls who have been touched by blindness. The photograph captures an intimate exchange between Princess Alexandra and one of the children at the center. Their smiles reflect joy and gratitude for her visit, offering solace to those who may feel forgotten or marginalized due to their disabilities.
