Saudi Gazette report

RIYADH — The National Center for the Non-Profit Sector announced that it has detected 17 violations against 13 citizens and 4 residents.

The National Center detected the violators due to their attempt to collect donations under various charitable forms and in illegal ways.

The violations were proven because the violators did not obtain a license to collect donations from the center.

The National Center called for the importance of citizens and residents' commitment to regulations on collecting charitable donations and approach donors in a legal way and through official channels.

It is noteworthy that the "Ehsan" national platform, in April 2021, has been developed by the Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA) as part of its efforts to support charitable giving in Saudi Arabia.

“Ehsan” platform aims to enhance the social responsibility, establish and raise the efficiency of development work, upgrade the values of national belonging and humanitarian work for individuals and institutions alike, and support national services, programs and platforms concerned with donating across the Kingdom.
