About Us

Every civilised society needs voluntary, non-profit charitable institutions that work alongside government bodies, speak to the humanity in each of us, and allow the seed of goodwill in the human soul to grow for the benefit of society in every field.

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has long led the way in charitable work, being the first home of Islam — a faith that urges its followers to do as much good as they can. It is from here that the concept of the “waqf” arose: vital institutions whose returns are devoted purely to charitable causes.

The Kingdom's pioneering role in charity has never been confined to its own borders; it has reached every corner of the earth, whether through national institutions or through active participation in charitable organisations worldwide — earning the Kingdom a leading place in this field through tangible results on the ground.

Among the noblest fields of charitable work — if not the noblest of all — is healthcare; no society can develop or advance unless its people enjoy comprehensive healthcare. When charitable work in health is carried out with professionalism and mastery, and supported by a specialised research centre, it reaches its highest purpose and follows the right path.

In the field of charitable healthcare, the King Faisal Specialist Hospital Charity Foundation — “Wareef Charity” — works to overcome every challenge and difficulty, determined to fulfil its vision, mission and objectives, with unlimited support from the wise government, the private sector, and its professional team.
