KFUPM Fund

The KFUPM fund aims to provide an impact driven investment opportunity through a leading educational & research funding in the Kingdom. With its large alumni network and partnerships with charitable institutions, the fund preserves the essence of truth and provides a sustainable distribution for our Contributors.

The university prioritizes staying at the forefront of research, but the costs of maintaining exceptional facilities are rising annually. To address this financial challenge, the KFUPM Fund was established in 2007. While the university receives primary funding from the Saudi government, the Fund supports research, education, and student activities that go beyond what the regular budget can cover.
