Who is Princess Sora Al Saud of Saudi Arabia?

An Advocate For The People
If you’ve ever heard of the Ahyaha Foundation, chances are you’ve crossed paths with Princess Sora and her husband, Prince Abdulaziz. Together they celebrate innovation, sustainability and community wellbeing. As the Vice Chairwoman of the Board of Trustees, Princess Sora and the organisation have led impactful projects like the Bread For All Initiative, making life better for individuals in Riyadh.
Growing up in a multicultural environment – spanning between KSA, Europe and the USA – this prompted her to further pursue a life anchored to service. From regional activities to global initiatives, she inspires everyone around her.
For The Youth
Beyond borders, Princess Sora’s global impact shines bright. Since 2017, she’s been an honorary ambassador for Mentor International, a non-profit organisation all about lifting up young people. Her mantra? “Find the unique in your life and inspire others to find theirs,” she has previously stated.
Through Mentor, she celebrates the advocacy of helping over six million children and adolescents with programs that focus on empowering and developing young minds into talents and visionaries. So much so, that during the 25th anniversary of Mentor, Princess Sora spoke on behalf of Queen Silva of Sweden, praising the achievements and for everyone to contribute to aiding and reaching children globally.
A Pioneering Businesswoman
Princess by day, businesswoman by night, Her Highness never strays from doing what she loves the most. With her personal Instagram filled with the most creative inspirations, she never lacks the same with her business mindset.
Venturing with five businesses including the Ahayah Foundation, she also founded her own jewellery brand (SOLY Fine Jewellery), a preloved fashion platfrom (SO.), and a luxury fine dining experience in Riyadh (So. Fleur).
With one of her other ventures, Sora Saud Trading company, Princess Sora is running over 10 projects that bring communities together, all while sparking creativity and innovation.
“This is my invitation to you – the courageous, uncommonly creative individuals who see the world differently – join me in making it a little more beautiful,” she states. “This is more than a passion project. It is the canvas of my life’s work.”
