New Delhi [India], August 22: In the heart of Beverly Hills resides a remarkable force of global goodwill--Dame Dr. Munni Irone, widely hailed as the "Queen of Beverly Hills" and a leading figure in international philanthropy, diplomacy, and ethical commerce.
In 2015, Dame Munni Irone founded the Art 4 Peace Awards, a non-profit organization sustained entirely through her dedication and efforts. She has never sought donations, choosing instead to personally sponsor and support all her projects.
Hailing from a remarkably educated and accomplished family, Dame Munni Irone's early experiences--surviving 12 years of domestic abuse--became the wellspring of her inspiring mission to create safe havens for others.
Art, Peace & Cultural Diplomacy
By celebrating excellence across seven cultural disciplines--music, dance, cinema, culinary arts, martial arts, painting, and royalty--the awards champion heritage, pride, and mutual understanding across continents. The gatherings are far from political; instead, they invite global leaders and artists to "bring them to conscience, so they can be conscience leaders."
Notably, her Art4Peace Awards events have drawn royalty, diplomats, and delegates from as many as 33 countries to Beverly Hills. In one memorable affair, she orchestrated an evocative olive tree planting ceremony attended by a diverse assembly united in symbol and spirit. In 2021, she extended the initiative to global reach--organizing Art4Peace in San Diego and driving outreach to Ghana, Haiti, and India, mixing exhibitions with fundraising for underserved communities.
Philanthropy That Literally Moves
Dame Munni Irone's benevolence spans continents. Her personal support reaches deep into underserved communities--from feeding homeless populations on Skid Row to supporting orphanages in Vietnam, Thailand, Sri Lanka, and Kenya. According to Good News Planet, she supports six charities around the world, including "The Nest" and "Calvary" in Nairobi and monthly Skid Row drives--acts she leads not from prestige, but from heartfelt service.
Recognitions of a Lifetime of Service
Dame Munni's enduring impact has earned her a string of prestigious honors. In April 2025, she was awarded the President's Lifetime Achievement Award for clocking over 6,000 hours of volunteer service. The accolade was presented during a gala cruise in New York, marking another milestone in a career already decorated with previous Presidential commendations and a Humanitarian Gold Award.
Global Commerce: Gold, Integrity & Expansion
Beyond her philanthropic endeavors, Dame Munni is a formidable business leader. As founder and CEO of Dame Munni Irone Trading Company, she has built a global trading empire specializing in gold, lithium, iron, sugar, and more--anchored by an unwavering commitment to transparency and ethical trade. "She wants to clean up corruption in the business of gold, lithium, iron, sugar, and ensure smooth transactions where agents don't have to get scammed."
Her company opened its headquarters in Beverly Hills in February 2024, alongside operational offices in Dubai and India--signifying a strategic leap into key international markets and reinforcing its global leadership.
Driven by Purpose--Not Investors
Dame Munni does not wait for investors--she self-funds her entire portfolio. Whether it's humanitarian shelters, awards that unite continents, or trading ventures, she works tirelessly--typically 14 to 18 hours a day, seven days a week--to realize her mission of tourism, healing, peace, and economic development.
Holistic Humanitarian Ecosystems
At the core of her operations lies a desire to create holistic, sustainable ecosystems--business ventures that enable tourism, compassionate community healing, educational advancement, and global peace. Through Art4Peace and other initiatives, she merges creativity with cultural pride to drive social change.
Empathy, Education & Economic Empowerment
Her philanthropic model emphasizes empowerment. In Los Angeles, she's funded education, helping students launch manicuring salons, and expanded employment legislation for immigrant communities that improved lives. During the COVID-19 crisis, she collaborated with global leaders to create jobs internationally.
Dame Dr. Munni Irone, the Queen of Beverly Hills, stands apart not for her titles or accolades--but for her mission, her action, and her heart. A survivor turned builder of peace through commerce and compassion. An entrepreneur who built empires not to amass wealth--but to spread stability, healing, and dignity across the globe. To call her work inspiring would be an understatement; she personifies purpose.
