Arab Financial Services (AFS), the Middle East and Africa region’s leading digital payment solutions provider and fintech enabler, announced a partnership with the Royal Humanitarian Foundation (RHF), a charitable organization based in the Kingdom of Bahrain, launching “A Fils Changes Lives” initiative aimed to support RHF’s dedicated efforts in empowering individuals and less fortunate families across Bahrain.
As part of AFS’s ongoing efforts to contribute to the sustainable development of the Kingdom by integrating social responsibility into its core business operations, this initiative aims at giving back to the Bahraini community, where every transaction made on AFS Point-of-Sale (POS) terminals will see a portion—equivalent to one Fils— to be donated to RHF. The total donation amount will be accumulated throughout the year and transferred annually into RHF’s accounts to support their vital community programs.
The agreement was signed between Samer Soliman, AFS Chief Executive Officer, and RHF Secretary General, His Excellency Shaikh Ali bin Khalifa Al Khalifa, marking the long-standing relationship that AFS holds with RHF, which reflects AFS’s commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) objectives.
His Excellency Shaikh Ali bin Khalifa Al Khalifa expressed his gratitude for the partnership, stating, “The support from AFS through this initiative will significantly bolster our ongoing efforts to uplift the community. We value this collaboration and look forward to seeing the positive impact it will have on the lives of those we aim to support.”
Commenting on the occasion, Samer Soliman said, “We are proud to partner with the Royal Humanitarian Foundation on this meaningful initiative. At AFS, our dedication to the community is at the heart of our operations across all geographical locations. This agreement ensures that every transaction on our POS terminals contributes directly to the welfare of Bahraini society.”
AFS’s support for the initiatives undertaken by the Royal Humanitarian Foundation has been unwavering over the years, where the AFS team has collaborated closely with RHF on various occasions, working together to support and uplift the community.
