Bahrain-based AlMabarrah Al Khalifia Foundation (MKF), a non-profit foundation registered and licensed by the Ministry of Labour and Social Development, has signed up leading business advisory boutique Vanguard Group for provision of integrated strategic, administrative and financial advisory solutions.

Established in 2011, MKF is run by an independent council of secretaries with a long standing expertise in community service. It aims to empower Bahraini youth to succeed through launching comprehensive programmes.

As per the deal, Vanguard will provide advisory services through guidance sessions. The strategy will be developed in line with Bahrain’s economic vision and sustainable development objectives of the United Nations.

In order to achieve this strategy, the foundation will study the current market conditions, providing the skills and expertise that the labor market lacks in order to ensure the development of youth capacities and developing a sense of social responsibility within them to help lead charitable projects and initiatives in the interest of the community and the public.

Since its establishment in 2007, Vanguard has been expanding its services to the GCC and parts of Europe as a consultancy specialising in providing professional advice to start-ups, growing businesses, as well as further developing business opportunities by using successful strategies.

MKF Chairperson Shaikha Zain bint Khalid bin Abdulla Al Khalifa, lauded Vanguard for its co-operation in provision of integrated strategic, administrative and financial advisory solutions.

She thanked Hazem Janahi, the founder of Vanguard, and and shared her high aspirations for further development within the foundation.

"We will continue to work towards empowering young Bahrainis with a wealth of education and a set of personal skills which will allow them to exploit their maximum potential for Bahrain and its development," she added.-TradeArabia News Service
