About us
Our Initiatives
Responsibility To Our Community
As part of our interest in ethical growth, we host a series of initiatives with goals tailored to supporting various causes and projects. Kanoo Foundation enables the group to enact CSR strategies while the Yusuf Bin Ahmed Kanoo Award serves as an opportunity to aid the most ambitious individuals for their work in furthering knowledge and resources.
The Yusuf Bin Ahmed Kanoo Award
True to our reputation for altruism and communal support, the Group, led by our late Executive Chairman, Ahmed bin Ali Kanoo, established an award in memory of our founder, Yusuf Bin Ahmed Kanoo, to promote knowledge and science in 1989. The $6 million YBA Kanoo Award, governed by the Board of Trustees and approved by the Late Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Bahrain HRH Prince Khalifa bin Salman Al Khalifa, aims to highlight and champion outstanding individuals or groups whose work represents a qualitative addition to human knowledge, as well as recognise the creativity of Arab authors and scholars.
Kanoo Museum
Located at Bab Al Bahrain, Kanoo Museum is a place that not only archives the company’s origins and our progress but also serves as a means of sharing the greater development made in Bahrain and the region.
Kanoo Foundation
The Kanoo Foundation has been an avenue for positive change at a communal level, reflecting YBA Kanoo’s commitment to ethics and altruism. It has successfully facilitated CSR projects, enabling us to enact positive and sustainable changes for an opportunity-rich future.
