Purpose of research The purpose of my research is to investigate the causes behind poverty in KSA.In the streets a daily problem is happening in the signal lights we see people asking for money and we want a solution for it because it has bad outcomes towards the country itself. I will discuss in this paper what are the causes of poverty and how we can manage this problem.

Methodology My method is searching about books and articles regarding poverty including online search and library research. I am going to ask people what they think are the causes of poverty in the Kingdom and how we can solve this issue. I think that more than 55% of Saudis are poor.

Literature review 1. book Social Policy & Administration Volume pages 689–707, December 2010 it says that This article reports an exploratory study in Jeddah City, Saudi Arabia, which assembled data and information from government and non-governmental organizations about poverty and poverty alleviation policies. A list of poor families which were receiving benefits from the Social Security Department and charitable associations in Jeddah City was constructed, from which female-headed households were identified and classified depending on the circumstances of the female head. The article describes the social, cultural and demographic characteristics of poor female- headed households in Jeddah. to analyze aspects of their everyday lives.

2. This evidence is used to discuss the ability of the Saudi state's income support system to address poverty as the country undergoes economic and social modernization. 3. My reason to do this research because I always think to myself how come we are the richest country in Gulf Area and most of the Saudis are poor. It relates to all of us because it is a human matter issue.

Findings After I searched the books and online search through articles I found out that KSA society is suffering from poverty and they most rely on charity work in order to live the daily life because we are a huge population government can not provide well based charity system for those in need.

Implications There are ways charities can reduce the negative effects: Read and understand the situation Continue the same routines They specify a basket of dairy food , rice and bread for every poor family.

Conclusion I have in my research three questions what are the causes of poverty, who is the responsible of causing this issue and what are the possible sulotions.My statement that more than 55% of Saudis are poor is true .

Any Questions ??
