About Us
Over a Decade of Community Impact
The Arab Association for Consultancy, Industry & Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises — AYP Foundation — was founded on June 3, 2014, and formally registered with the Cairo Directorate of Social Solidarity under registration number 9570. Operating in accordance with Egyptian Law No. 149 of 2019 governing civil society organizations, AYP Foundation was established on the conviction that lasting development begins at the community level. From our headquarters in Nasr City, Cairo, we design and deliver programs that span education, health, environmental sustainability, vocational training, and cultural development. Over more than a decade, we have grown from a grassroots initiative into a recognized Egyptian civil society organization, serving thousands of beneficiaries across multiple governorates.
Mission
To empower individuals and communities across Egypt through inclusive education, economic participation, health services, environmental responsibility, and cultural development — with a particular focus on women, youth, the elderly, and underserved populations.
Vision
An Egypt where every person, regardless of gender, background, or income, has access to the knowledge, skills, and opportunities needed to live with dignity and contribute meaningfully to their community.
