The Catholic Church in Egypt said on 14 November 2026 that Caritas Egypt held an Ordinary General Assembly meeting at its administrative headquarters in Shubra.

The General Assembly approved the final accounts for the fiscal year ending 30 June 2026, the auditor's report, the draft estimated budget, and the appointment of the auditor for the new fiscal year, the church said. Comprehensive elections for the members of the Board of Directors were also held according to the association's bylaws.

Dr. Jamil Halim said that cooperation with government entities, funding agencies, and local civil society partnerships has supported projects for local communities and needy groups under the slogan "Humanity First." The association honored several former board members at the conclusion of the meeting for their contributions to the mission of Caritas Egypt.
