Al-Nahda Association announced that its project “In the Field” has won a grant from the Ahalina Social Investment Program in its fifth cycle.
The project, which will run for nine months, aims to train a group of beneficiaries through a comprehensive training package that concludes with employment opportunities. This will be carried out in collaboration with training and hiring partners and includes barista training, food safety, customer service, and résumé preparation.
It is worth noting that the Ahalina Program—launched as a partnership between the King Khalid Foundation and the Saudi National Bank—focuses on preparing and developing low-income Saudis to enter the labor market or increase their financial independence. This is achieved by funding and overseeing a number of development programs implemented by local nonprofit organizations.
The significance of the program lies in its role in addressing the challenges faced by low-income groups, empowering them to join the labor market, achieve financial independence, and contribute to driving sustainable development.
