El-Rayes Foundation staff in Vancouver and Egypt are all volunteers. As a result, 100% of the money donated is spent on the charitable purpose it was given for. Also, fundraising is done by volunteers. As a result, there is no overhead cost (no employees) and the administrative cost is kept minimal. However, professional consultants may be hired to provide technical expertise necessary for our services to be delivered at an acceptable professional level.

The Foundation is helping patients in British Columbia in an area that is underserved. In this way, it is filling a gap to help some British Columbians to enhance their quality of life and enhance their healing.

In the Scholarship Program, the Foundation is serving individuals who are in real need for financial assistance to provide their basic necessities and enable them to continue their studies in schools in Egypt rather than being driven into child labor.

The Scholarship Program helps raise a kinder, gentler new generation that makes doing acts of kindness a part of their conviction. The scholarship recipients will become a role model for their peers and the community. Their ultimate goal will be to represent Egypt in joining the World Kindness Movement. It will also help raise a generation that believes in nonviolence means to resolve personal, community, national, and international conflicts.
