Helping People to Help Themselves

摘要

As an important part of their Islamic heritage, Saudis have long been recognized as charitable people, but since 9.11 a number of charitable organizations have come under close scrutiny or been victim of innuendo in the Western media. The Prince Sultan Foundation is one of a number of large Saudi foundations that have been at pains to disassociate themselves from any wrongdoing. Under the banner "Helping people to help themselves" the foundation's mission has been to set up an institution that enables people to gain independence in the future.
