General Information
The Sawiris Foundation for Social Development was founded in April 2001, with an endowment from the Sawiris family. It constitutes the first family foundation dedicated to social development in Egypt. The Foundation provides grants to fund projects implemented by partners. The Foundation focuses its action on projects geared towards job creation. It first identifies job opportunities with no qualified individuals available to fill them. It then proceeds to train unemployed to take up these jobs. Prior commitment from employers is obtained to hire successful trainees. The Foundation also strives to foster the spirit of entrepreneurship and to support the creation of self-employment opportunities. It funds training for potential entrepreneurs, and provides seed money for the start up of micro and small enterprises.
Mission and Objectives

The Foundation's approach to social development is based on three fundamental concepts: the backward model of job creation; partnerships; and leverage and replicability.
The Backward Model:
The Foundation follows a linear, three-stage approach to job creation: market needs are assessed; employment is secured; and then certified training of an internationally accepted standard is provided in areas where there are jobs available but nobody qualified to fill them. This strategy of working backward by securing employment prior to undertaking specially tailored training programs for the unemployed, ensures that jobs are guaranteed for graduates of the training programs supported by the Foundation, and that market needs are met.
Partnership:
Projects funded by the Foundation are based on the collaboration between civil society, the government, and the corporate sector. The Foundation's institutional partners function as implementing agencies, and are also sometimes involved in the design and co-funding of projects. Implementing agencies include government bodies, non-governmental and non-profit organizations, universities, and business enterprises.
Thus, employment creation programs are implemented through partnerships involving institutions willing to undertake the training component; businesses willing to host on-the-job training; and partners willing to participate in project funding or provide technological transfer.
Leverage and Replicability :
The Foundation supports and develops projects that are innovative, answer socio-economic needs, demonstrate potential for success, and can be promoted as a model to be replicated and adapted by other institutions. Such projects are seen as the starting point for a long-term process of social change and economic growth, on both an individual and a societal level. The Foundation thus works towards the improvement of society by helping others to help themselves.
