Maadi Community Foundation aims at reviving and modernizing the concept of endowment as a means for encouraging sustainable non-governmental financing and development in Egypt. Civil society's heritage in Egypt is deep rooted and in order to begin and support development efforts that befit our time and are models for today's civil foundations we must utilize an old concept, the waqf endowment, so it is a channel to mobilize direct domestic resources towards sustainable development. Maadi Community Foundation plays a leading role among civil society organizations by adopting a permanent (firm) financial system and contribution paradigm. The objectives of the Foundation are to lessen the gap between rich and poor people in the Al-Maadi area and its suburbs, improve the standard of living of the residents of the area by reactivating the idea of the social endowment and update the concept of endowment for the service of the society.
