RIYADH: Saudi Arabia’s non-profit sector’s efforts during the Hajj season led to the registration of 61 new organizations in June, bringing the total number of establishments to 4,942. 

Data issued by the National Center for Non-Profit Sector also revealed the number of volunteers in the sector increased to reach 105,000 in June, up from the around 100,000 recorded in May.

The newly registered entities comprise 46 civil associations, five civil institutions, and 10 family funds, covering a wide range of development fields across the Kingdom.   

This aligns with the non-profit sector’s key role in the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 economic diversification initiative. It also supports the sector’s aim to improve the quality of life and enhance human, social, and religious values. 

Additionally, it reinforces the center’s commitment to collaborating with all parties to ensure transparent oversight of donation collection and disbursement. The center emphasized the importance of compliance with regulations, guidelines, and procedures within the non-profit sector.
