- $2.7 million spent. Strategic Initiatives: As we work in the Middle East and North Africa regions, we sometimes observe a ministry opportunity that is not being implemented by anyone or a new ministry method that needs to be developed to increase the effectiveness of our ministry partners. We then define a project, initiate research and development and, when fully developed, transfer the developed initiative on to our ministry partners or help establish a new organization that will become a ministry partner to continue implementing the initiative. Two examples of this work are the MENA Leadership center and the Middle East Trauma Healing Resource Center. During the year we provided various grants to organizations we helped develop as a part of this program.
- $286,710 spent. Kingdom Investment Committee (KIC)- KIC is SRG's Kingdom Investment Committee. KIC is a committee that reports to the Board and is responsible for defining the strategic direction and priorities for grant making. It approves all Fund Prospectuses and the macro and micro allocation (use of funds) for all SRG activities. It also instigates Strategic Initiatives.
