SAB marks 100 years with 100 homes for disabled people

Saudi Awwal Bank (SAB) is celebrating its 100th anniversary by contributing to a significant housing initiative for disabled individuals. The bank has pledged SR10 million ($2.7 million) to support the Adult Disability Association's Harakia project, which aims to provide 100 homes for low-income individuals with mobility impairments. This initiative is part of SAB's broader corporate social responsibility efforts, showcasing a commitment to social welfare in the community.

The project will span three years, ensuring that each home is specifically adapted to meet the needs of its residents. This initiative not only addresses the housing crisis for disabled individuals but also promotes inclusivity and support for marginalized communities in Saudi Arabia. By focusing on low-income families, SAB is making a meaningful impact on the lives of those who often face significant barriers.

As SAB marks its centenary, this initiative highlights the importance of corporate responsibility in fostering social change. The collaboration with the Developmental Housing Foundation, or Sakan, further emphasizes the role of partnerships in achieving sustainable development goals within the Kingdom.
