The Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Society, Prince Saud bin Abdulaziz bin Farhan, stated, “By organizing these charitable auctions, we aim to achieve sustainability in the services provided to people with autism in the Kingdom through an innovative charitable model, with the participation and humanitarian inspiration of all members of society, regardless of their fields.”

Prince Saud bin Abdulaziz bin Farhan stressed the importance of the association’s participation as a strategic partner in the global sporting event, stressing, “Since our founding in 2009, we have made a commitment to children and youth with autism and their families. This commitment is in line with the ambitious 2030 Vision that seeks to improve the quality of life for all members of society.” "

"Since our founding, we have succeeded in fulfilling our commitment through our partnerships... Thanks to our partner Formula E last year, we raised $1.9 million through which we were able to develop our services in the field of healthcare, education, social integration and entertainment," he added.
