RIYADH: Saudi Arabia’s King Salman and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman have donated a total of SR70 million ($18.7 million) to the fourth annual National Campaign for Charitable Work, through the Ehsan platform. The king gave SR40 million and the crown prince SR30 million.
Majid Al-Qasabi, the chairman of Ehsan’s supervisory committee, thanked the king and crown prince for their generous contributions and said all of the donations Ehsan receives are an essential source of funding and play an important part in the success of the Kingdom’s charitable initiatives.
The campaign will remain open for donations throughout the holy month of Ramadan, which is a time when Muslims are encouraged to carry out charitable acts.
