Prince Harry visits New York
Posted: 11:39 AM ET

NEW YORK (CNN) — Prince Harry, the youngest son of Princess Diana, will arrive in New York Friday, the site of his first official trip overseas, British officials announced.

During his two-day visit, Harry plans to meet with family members of Sept. 11 victims, lay a wreath at Ground Zero and meet with veterans of the Iraq and Afghan wars, royal palace officials said. Harry, 24, served for two months in Afghanistan as a Coalition Forces soldier in 2007.

Also on Harry’s agenda is a formal naming ceremony of Lower Manhattan’s Hanover Square to honor the 67 British victims of the Sept. 11 attacks, officials said.

Harry’s trip will also take him uptown to the Harlem Children’s Zone, where he and Prince Seeiso of Lesotho hope to learn how the non-profit has succeeded in supporting children in the low-income area, said officials. Following Princess Diana’s example, Harry will use this trip to promote his own charity for children, Sentebale. Co-founded with Lesotho’s prince, the charity supports children in the Sub-Saharan country who lost parents to AIDS.
