Recently, I was offered an insight into the good work of Princess Azizah of Pahang who has taken up the often under-looked cause of families who want to be families. She has brought to light the plight of parents who have been unable to conceive through her foundation, the Tengku Azizah Fertility Foundation (TAFF). With the help of this organisation, parents are given the financial and medical aid needed for IVF treatment.
My mother and I were invited to the TAFF Family Day not too long ago and we were able to witness her kindness and genuine care for these families. It was so touching to see the proud parents with their bundles of joy - their faces radiant with happiness. But the credit really does go to the Princess who was without snobbery and who had given her whole heart into the project. She is aided by able doctors and a dedicated team who believe in her and in the cause.
I was most impressed by her good work and it really was an eye-opening experience. I do wish the foundation well in all its success.

Indeed! If there's another opportunity, I'll be sure to bring you too. It is true indeed that royalty is making an effort, esp in this day and age.
Lol! The people's princess indeed!
i read about her in the papers a while ago. i thought it was really cool what she'd started :) a good cause indeed!
Hats off to her royal Highness Princess Azizah where her actions speak louder than her words. Way to go!
Very altruistic indeed. TAFF is doing a great job. I was wondering whether TAFF will introduce DNA selection (to screen for potential birth defects) and sexing (gender selection) besides present IVF method?

Great job YM Tunku!
