The ALFI Foundation stands today as one of the leading international humanitarian non-profit organizations, supporting a wide array of initiatives designed to empower the underprivileged, persecuted and beleaguered across continents.
Driven by the unifying ethos of compassion, the ALFI Foundation has supported everything from the development of underprivileged communities, empowering social mobility and supporting the world’s endangered wildlife.
For instance, in Beirut, Lebanon the Alfi Foundation provides financial assistance to over 100 single-parent families at the Burj Barajneh refugee camp that would otherwise be left without the bare necessities of life. And in Varanasi, India, the Alfi Foundation led the initiative to sponsor 1,500 struggling families through the holiday month of Ramadan. At the same time, the Alfi Foundation can be found supporting girls and boy’s projects as well as local educational and youth development institutions in Pinsk, Belarus. These are just several of the copious international advancement projects that the foundation has launched in recent years.
Furthermore, beyond the organization’s sovereign work, ALFI Foundation Chairman Alshair Fiyaz has become a prominent benefactor of UNICEF in his own right.
Alshair recently partnered with UNICEF to spearhead the eradication of Polio in his native country of Pakistan. With Alshair’s help, UNICEF is now better placed to deliver vaccines, strengthen supervision on the spread of disease and boost prevention.
As illustrated not only by his philanthropic endeavors but also by his business ventures, such as the sustainable model community of Bellakvarter, Copenhagen, Fiyaz has built a notable reputation for forward-thinking leadership, environmental conservation and humanitarian compassion.
