Al-Rajhi welcomes approval of unified GCC volunteer work system

Al-Rajhi lauded Saudi leadership for endorsing the unified GCC volunteer work system, emphasizing its potential to empower and progress volunteerism. Ahmed bin Sulaiman Al-Rajhi, Minister of Human Resources and Social Development and Chairman of the National Center for Non-Profit Sector Development, welcomed the Supreme Council's approval of the system during its 44th session.

He expressed gratitude to King Salman and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for their continued support of the non-profit sector and volunteer initiatives. The unified system, according to Al-Rajhi, introduces a new legislative framework that will bolster volunteer work, improve its organizational structure, and promote active involvement from individuals and institutions in achieving sustainable development.

It will cultivate a culture of organized volunteering and protect the rights of volunteers and development organizations, aligning with Saudi Vision 2030's objective of enhancing social impact. The National Center for Non-Profit Sector Development, under Al-Rajhi's leadership, will oversee the system's implementation, enhancing the sector's efficiency and governance.

This will establish a secure and conducive environment for volunteers while promoting GCC cooperation and integration in social development and humanitarian efforts.
