He pointed out that the Kingdom is at the top donor countries in providing support to the Palestinian people, expressing gratitude and appreciation to the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques and HRH the Crown Prince for their support to help the Palestinian people.

Donors can also send their transfers directly through the campaign’s Al-Rajhi Bank account, or download the Sahem application on mobile devices via Apple or Google Play.
