Mrs. Rania Nashar was also appointed as chief executive officer of Samba financial group with extensive banking experience for about 20 years. In the field of charitable and volunteer work, voluntary women's efforts emerged through voluntary women's associations that are responsible for providing care, education, awareness and attention to women and solving their problems. Women's charitable societies continued in the Kingdom, some of which are independent while the others are branches as women committees affiliated to women supervisory offices that are affiliated to the Ministry of Social Affairs, the most prominent of which was the Third Annual Noura incubator for Volunteer Activity of Princess Noura Bint Abdulrahman University under the theme of "Quality and Charity", which revealed that Saudi women volunteers are 30% more than men. The meeting was attended by the largest gathering of volunteers in the world and was marked by the launch of the record number for the entry of the Kingdom to Guinness with 4995 volunteers.

The protection against abuse and anti-harassment law constituted a legal framework to protect women and girls from all forms of violence. A national register was also created to record and monitor cases of violence against children and women in the Kingdom in the health sector with the aim of producing annual statistics that contribute to the development of an integrated vision for protection strategy makers in the Kingdom, to guarantee protection mechanisms application in all sectors concerned, and the establishment of a committee on protection of family and monitoring authorities’ performance and coordination between them to ensure compliance with regulations, laws, and the quality of application and development of information campaigns in this regard in order to maintain individuals' privacy, dignity and personal freedom. Saudi women, from the time of the founder King Abdulaziz - may Allah have mercy on his soul- until the reign of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud - have got many royal decisions and orders, including the direct support of the role of women, within the system of governmental and private institutions. However, the vision of 2030 was an ambitious project for Saudi women, to diversify the gains that have achieved that reflect a brighter image and their potential by providing employment opportunities in many areas in all aspects of planning and implementation to integrate the image of Saudi women with what they offer of a view and organizations in the Shoura Council to participate in the development of their society, the economy of their country, and reduce the perception of marginalization of women in Saudi society. --SPA 13:58 LOCAL TIME 10:58 GMT 0011 www.spa.gov.sa/w1092794
