What we do
Three areas where our members make a difference
Every riyal we collect is directed into one of these programmes, and every case is verified by a member before a single payment is made.
Education
Scholarships, school support and skill-development opportunities for children and young adults who would otherwise go without.
Welfare
Medical and financial aid for families in distress, delivered through members who verify every case on the ground.
Expatriate support
Guidance for Indians in the Kingdom facing legal, employment or emergency situations, from people who have been through it.

Message from the President
At Indian Expatriates Society (IES), our mission is rooted in compassion, responsibility and collective growth.
As expatriates, we carry not only our professional ambitions but also a deep connection to our communities back home. IES was established to bridge this connection - to support, uplift and empower those in need while strengthening unity among Indians abroad.
Together, we can make a difference.
