As President of the Mary Foundation Princess Mary again this year sent a personal message with the desire for a happy 2012Last year, Crown Princess Mary as chairman of the Mary Foundation, for the first time a New Year's letter where she told of the fund in the past year.
It was so successful that Mary once again has written a long letter in which she with her own words tell of large and small from the Mary Foundation's work in 2011. The newsletter concludes with, "a merry Christmas and a Happy New Year" to everyone.
One of the things that Crown Princess Mary emphasizes that "the biggest thing that has happened in Mary Foundation since the last newsletter," is the Fund's new focus area: Loneliness.
In November, held a major conference on loneliness, and many of the issues and destinies that were lit on this day in the Black Diamond in Copenhagen, has made a big impression on Mary.
In a section in the newsletter writes Crown Princess as follows:
"I was fortunately able to talk to some of the participants after the day's major program. Each and every one stressed how important it is to gain more knowledge and research on the subject than we have today. Both young and older considered loneliness to be something that is not spoken about and how it should not be. The lonely to know that there are many others in the same situation. It should not be painful or embarrassing to be lonely - it's hard enough already. "
"Soon await Christmas and with it hopefully time with friends and family. It is also a time for hope and faith in change. I hope we can all find an opportunity to extend a hand to those who have no community, or who need a little extra attention. "
Because of twin birth canceled Crown Princess Mary last year on New Year's reception, which she has held since 2006 for representatives of its many patronage. Here they are offered a glass of champagne, after which they will have the opportunity to wish both Mary and each other a happy New Year.
This year will be the reception for the first time held in Frederik VIII's Palace, probably sometime in January.
