Resumption of 9th WCH World Royal Summit Announced for Kolkata, India in Integration with the 17th World Confluence of Humanity, Power & Spirituality

We Care for Humanity (WCH) has officially announced the new dates and prestigious venue for its flagship global event, the 9th WCH World Royal Summit. Originally planned for Bangalore, the summit was strategically postponed out of an abundance of caution and deep respect for proactive health precautions implemented by the Government of India regarding the Ebola outbreak affecting parts of Africa. Now, the highly anticipated summit is officially set to resume from December 11 to December 12, 2026, beautifully integrated into the landmark 17th World Confluence of Humanity, Power & Spirituality in Kolkata, India.

The extensive daytime conference sessions will take place at the main confluence venue, while the summit’s high-level fundraising exhibit layout and evening gala will be hosted within the historic Lalit Great Eastern Hotel Ballroom. The unified event marks the second monumental partnership between We Care for Humanity and the World Confluence, following their highly successful initial integration in 2018 which drew notable dignitaries across Europe, Africa, and Asia. As a premier World Royal Summit, this Kolkata event anticipates an extraordinary congregation of international royalty, traditional heads of state, and global humanitarians.

The unified event is organized in close cooperation with the renowned Kanoria Foundation, chaired by the eminent philanthropist and educationist Dr. Hari Prasad Kanoria, alongside the organizational leadership of Dr. Rahul Varma, Director of the World Confluence. Maha Putri Mariam Leonor Torres Mastura (Queen Maria), Founder and President of We Care for Humanity, has served as a dedicated, long-standing member of the World Confluence team, consistently working over the years to bring the world’s most notable and inspiring speakers to the platform.

Quotes from Global Leadership

 

Maha Putri Mariam Leonor Torres Mastura (Queen Maria), Founder & President of WCH:

"When international health directives prompted the Indian government to rightfully exercise maximum precaution, we chose to responsibly postpone our Bangalore dates. True humanitarian work always honors the safety of its global citizens and adapts. Bringing our flagship World Royal Summit to Kolkata by integrating it with the 17th World Confluence feels like a natural return. Having served as a member of the Confluence team for a very long time, I am profoundly grateful that we are joining hands once again. Our 2018 partnership was an absolute triumph for global diplomacy, and this December, with the exceptional support of the Kanoria Foundation, we are preparing to welcome an unparalleled assembly of international royalty to spark actionable, lasting change for humanity."

 


Dr. Hari Prasad Kanoria, Chairman of the Kanoria Foundation:

"The Kanoria Foundation is honored to partner with We Care for Humanity for the resumption of the 9th World Royal Summit. Our core ethos has always been anchored in devotion, spiritual intelligence, and selfless service to the global community. By hosting this royal delegation alongside the 17th World Confluence in Kolkata, we are creating a unique sanctuary where sovereign authority, ethical leadership, and deep human values converge to uplift the vulnerable and inspire future generations."

 


Dr. Rahul Varma, Director of the World Confluence of Humanity, Power & Spirituality:

"Integrating the 9th WCH World Royal Summit into the 17th World Confluence allows us to expand the horizons of our global mission. Maha Putri Mariam Leonor Torres Mastura (Queen Maria) has been an indispensable pillar of our confluence team for many years, bringing remarkable voices to our stage. Witnessing our two platforms unite for a second time—following the immense success of our 2018 collaboration—is a testament to what can be achieved when global networks share a unified vision for peace and human dignity."

Laughter, Links, and Lessons in Giving: WCH Las Vegas Branch Hosts Fun-Filled Charity Golf Day

LAS VEGAS, NV — The Las Vegas sun wasn't the only thing shining at Rhodes Ranch recently. The Las Vegas Branch of We Care for Humanity (WCH) traded the boardroom for the fairway, hosting a successful and spirited Charity Golf practice organized by Regional Director Lola Smallen and Deputy Director Leah Halama.

The casual afternoon of sport and sisterhood was headlined by Maha Putri Mariam Leonor Torres Mastura (Queen Maria), who joined a lively group of dedicated women for a day focused on friendship and "fore-thropy."

"There is something truly special about coming together in such a relaxed setting," said Maha Putri Mariam Leonor Torres Mastura (Queen Maria). "While we were there to practice our swing, the real success was the laughter we shared and the spontaneous generosity of these incredible women. It proves that when we enjoy each other's company, we can create a beautiful impact for humanity."

The attendees featured a powerhouse of community figures, including WCH Woman of the Year 2025 Helen Hanson and the wonderful Doumi Cilanci. They were joined by prominent Fil-Am community leaders Luz Tudla Prill (also a 2025 Woman of the Year) and Mrs. Cora. The event even drew new member from out of state, welcoming Ms. Joana, a dynamic businesswoman who traveled from California to join the festivities.

The Golf Club at Rhodes Ranch provided the perfect backdrop for an afternoon that was less about the scorecards and more about the smiles. Between swings, the group enjoyed fantastic food and plenty of laughter, proving that doing good can—and should—be a lot of fun.

By the end of the day, the generous spirit of the attendees resulted in $360 in contributions, all of which will go directly toward supporting WCH’s humanitarian initiatives.

WCH Greece Delivers Holiday Hope to Orphans of Hadjikyriakeio During Global Santa Initiative

On December 30, 2025, the Greece chapter of We Care for Humanity (WCH) brought the warmth of the holiday season to the orphans of Hadjikyriakeio through a special Global Santa mission.

The humanitarian effort was mobilized in response to the health challenges faced by the orphans’ guardian, Archimandrite Chrysostomos Karambelas, who recently underwent multiple surgeries. To ensure the children were not left behind during the festive season while their guardian recovers, the WCH team stepped in to provide essential support and holiday cheer.

The mission was spearheaded by WCH Greece and Cyprus Ambassador, Dr. Katerina Glykou Fontinia, and WCH Greece Interim Country Director, Ms. Jenny Michalopolous. They were joined by a dedicated group of ten female members of WCH Greece and the organization’s social media team from the group "It is us - not me - because ego is over" (https://www.facebook.com/groups/124215304408005/?ref=share).

Together, the volunteers delivered a substantial donation of food, including meat, bread, and various holiday goodies, ensuring the children enjoyed a festive meal and felt the embrace of their community.

Archimandrite Chrysostomos Karambelas is a cherished member of the humanitarian community, having been knighted by We Care for Humanity in September 2025 during the Heptapolis - Trilogy, the Vision of Delphi event in Athens.

Reflecting on the collective effort of the volunteers, Dr. Katerina Glykou Fontinia remarked, "True humanitarianism is about acting as one family. When we saw the need at Hadjikyriakeio, there was no hesitation; we simply wanted to ensure these children felt love and security during the holidays."

Ms. Jenny Michalopolous added, "The spirit of Global Santa is about stepping in where there is a need. With Father Chrysostomos recovering, we felt a deep responsibility to ensure the orphans of Hadjikyriakeio still experienced the joy and abundance of the holidays. It was an honor to serve them."

The Founder of We Care for Humanity, HRH Queen Mariam Leonor Torres Mastura, praised the initiative from the organization's headquarters: "I am incredibly proud of the WCH Greece team. Their swift action to support the orphans while our dear Knight, Archimandrite Chrysostomos, recovers is the true definition of compassion. They have shown that when one of us is down, the rest will stand up to protect the vulnerable."
