28Dec

The World Pilgrimage Program, one of Al Muhaidib Social Foundation’s initiatives to serve the community, is an annual program that hosts 100 pilgrims from around the world to perform Umrah and learn more about the principles of true Islam.

The program also features the Ziyarat program that showcases the Kingdom’s efforts in serving the Two Holy Mosques and showing the spirit of our Islamic religion.

The program was launched in 2010, making this the 10th consecutive year. In a qualitative leap, the program is now under the umbrella of the Ministry of Hajj and Umrah, and under the gracious patronage of His Excellency the Minister of Hajj personally.

The goal of this program is to create ambassadors for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia from all around the world to portray the image and the huge efforts made by the Government and the people of the Country. It also contributes to achieving part of the Vision 2030 of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, which is to reach 30 million pilgrims from all over.

It is worth noting that the Umrah participants come from more than 50 countries around the world from all continents, and the number of beneficiaries of the program have reached 1000 pilgrims to date.
