Crown Prince sponsors the fourth Ihsan Platform ceremony to honor benefactors
Under the patronage of His Royal Highness Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Crown Prince and Prime Minister – may God protect him – the National Platform for Charitable Work, "Ihsan," is preparing to hold its fourth annual Benefactors Appreciation Ceremony next Friday, corresponding to the 17th of Ramadan, 1447 AH. This ceremony honors those who have contributed to supporting charitable work in the Kingdom and celebrates the platform's remarkable achievements, which reflect the deep social cohesion within Saudi society.
Generous care that promotes the sustainability of charitable work
The Crown Prince's patronage of this annual event embodies the wise leadership's commitment to the charitable and non-profit sector, a cornerstone of the Kingdom's Vision 2030. This patronage aims to maximize the impact of giving and empower the sector by leveraging modern technologies and artificial intelligence to ensure donations reach their intended recipients easily and reliably. This event serves as a message of appreciation and gratitude to all those who have contributed their wealth and efforts to alleviate the suffering of those in need and support development projects across the Kingdom.
A qualitative leap in the journey of digital giving
Since its launch in 2021, under the close supervision of the Saudi Data & Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA), the "Ihsan" platform has revolutionized the concept of donation, transforming charitable work from traditional methods to a digital space characterized by high governance and transparency. This reliability has contributed to strengthening donor trust, leading to astronomical figures in donation volume. The total amount collected through the platform has exceeded 14 billion riyals, through more than 330 million donation transactions, benefiting millions of people in need in the areas of food, health, education, and housing.
Quality initiatives and lasting impact
The event is set to highlight the platform's most prominent initiatives, foremost among them the "Ihsan Endowment Fund," which serves as a model for financial sustainability in charitable work, ensuring that donations continue to benefit future generations. Success stories and the tangible impact of benefactors' contributions on transforming the lives of beneficiaries will also be showcased, reinforcing the values of solidarity within the community.
Strengthening the position of the non-profit sector
This event comes within the context of the Kingdom's drive to increase the contribution of the non-profit sector to the GDP, with "Ihsan" playing a pivotal role in regulating and enhancing the efficiency of this sector. The annual ceremony honoring philanthropists represents a renewed commitment to continued giving and motivating individuals, institutions, and companies to engage in social responsibility, thereby achieving sustainable development and benefiting the nation and its citizens.
