    There is great encouragement from the Kuwaiti government to give outside the State of Kuwait, which is also the case in domestic giving. This encouragement by the state has helped to give Kuwaiti charitable work its signature creativity, as it differs from the policy of other countries; this is evidenced by many societies that determine their scope of work and activities abroad, such as The International Islamic Charity Organization and Mercy International. These societies are operating in addition to the Kuwaiti embassies’ support for Philanthropic work, as well as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ representation as a member of grant committees in some charitable bodies.
