Foundation Story

Our story started in the 90s, when philanthropist late Dr. Salah Khater began supporting his community with donations to government and nongovernment healthcare entities that help underprivileged patients reach the healthcare services they need with the quality they deserve.

 

Commitment to Community Health

Following in their father’s footsteps, Dr. Fahad Salah Khater and Ms. Sarah Salah Khater continued fighting the good fight. Since 2000, they have been supporting numerous local and international foundations from the USA and the UK who help his community. Dr Fahad Khater moved on to become a board-member and active donor in a number of local foundations such as We Owe it to Egypt Foundation and Ahl Masr Foundation, providing both financial support and technical consultancy through Alameda Healthcare Group’s experts. In order to institutionalize the extensive charity work of the Khater family and drive its sustainable growth, Dr. Fahad and Ms. Sarah Khater established the Khater Foundation for Community Development as a non-profit organization. Its core belief is that an individual’s health and wellbeing are a fundamental right regardless of socio-economic, age, or ethnic background, and that an inclusively healthy environment contributes to a strong economy.
