Sawiris Foundation for Social Development (SFSD) is one of the first donor foundations in Egypt. It was established by the Sawiris family in 2001 to philanthropically support innovative solutions that target comprehensive and sustainable development in Egypt. Over the last 23 years, SFSD has addressed the most pressing issues facing marginalized Egyptians, such as poverty, unemployment, and limited access to quality education, by funding the delivery of developmental programs in partnership with government, private sectors as well as civil society, in 24 Egyptian governorates, with focus on the most remote villages and in-need communities.
