Saudi Billionaire Sulaiman Al Rajhi Shakes Global Philanthropy with $16 Billion Donation

                               


In a historic act of generosity, Saudi billionaire Sulaiman Al Rajhi has donated an unprecedented $16 billion of his fortune to charity, marking one of the largest individual contributions in history. This monumental donation is reshaping the global philanthropy landscape and inspiring others to follow in his footsteps.

At 95 years old, Al Rajhi decided to donate the majority of his wealth, including shares from Al Rajhi Bank, real estate, and other assets. Two-thirds of this wealth was placed into a waqf (Islamic endowment), funding initiatives in education, healthcare, food security, and religious institutions, while the remaining portion was allocated to his family. His decision effectively reduced his net worth below billionaire status, a move he described as being made "for God."

Al Rajhi’s donation sets a new benchmark for charitable giving, emphasizing the responsibility of using wealth to benefit society. His actions have inspired philanthropists in the Middle East and around the world to view generosity as more than charity—it’s a lifelong responsibility. Institutions like the Sulaiman Bin Abdul Aziz Al Rajhi Charitable Foundation continue to implement critical social projects that reflect his enduring legacy.

Beyond this extraordinary donation, Al Rajhi has a long history of philanthropy. He co-founded Al Rajhi Bank, one of the world’s largest Islamic banks, and established Sulaiman Al Rajhi University, a non-profit institution focusing on health and Islamic finance. From humble beginnings to becoming a self-made billionaire, Al Rajhi’s life demonstrates a deep commitment to using personal success as a platform to transform society.

In summary, Sulaiman Al Rajhi’s $16 billion donation is a landmark moment in global philanthropy, inspiring individuals and institutions worldwide to rethink how wealth can create lasting social impact.
