Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has announced the launch of the "Riyadh Non-Profit Foundation," marking a significant step toward enhancing social work and development within the Kingdom. This new foundation, which will operate independently under the Royal Commission for Riyadh City, is set to play a key role in advancing institutional and social work in a variety of forms, while promoting research, studies, and community engagement.
The foundation, chaired by the crown prince himself, will have Ibrahim bin Mohammed Al-Sultan, CEO of the Royal Commission for Riyadh City, as its vice president and secretary-general of the board of governors. The institution's mission is to support and develop the non-profit sector, fostering a culture of social work and promoting its values across all segments of society.
With the foundation's establishment, Saudi Arabia is taking a pioneering step in social innovation, with an emphasis on empowering all members of society and enhancing social cohesion. The Riyadh Non-Profit Foundation will collaborate with government agencies and other non-profit organizations to create job opportunities in the social sector, contribute to the Kingdom's Vision 2030 goals, and preserve Riyadh's cultural identity.
One of the foundation's primary objectives is to become a leader in designing and launching innovative social programs on both regional and global levels. It will focus on areas such as healthcare, education, arts, culture, and environmental sustainability, aiming to improve the quality of life for citizens while contributing to Saudi Arabia's broader social development goals.
Additionally, the foundation will work to build an interconnected ecosystem for social development by establishing research centers and incubators for social projects. These initiatives will contribute to the growth of the non-profit sector, empowering community members and driving the Kingdom’s efforts toward a sustainable and inclusive future.
The Riyadh Non-Profit Foundation is poised to become a catalyst for social change, offering new opportunities for collaboration and development in the Kingdom’s non-profit landscape.
