Emirates has introduced a striking new livery on its A380 aircraft, dedicated to raising awareness for the Emirates Airline Foundation’s impactful humanitarian efforts.
The design, inspired by the Foundation’s logo, features a colorful array of pastel stars—light green, warm orange, baby blue, and soft pink—symbolizing the joy and hope the Foundation brings to children worldwide. The aircraft's engine cowls are painted in a bold warm orange, representing a brighter future for disadvantaged children.
The new livery marks a significant step in the airline’s philanthropic journey, with the aircraft set to travel to Johannesburg, South Africa, where the Foundation supports two key projects. Under the leadership of His Highness Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman & Chief Executive of Emirates Airline & Group, the Emirates Airline Foundation operates as a non-profit organization. It has positively impacted thousands of children through over 50 projects globally, focusing on essential needs such as safe housing, food, medical care, and education.
The Foundation’s work spans nine countries, with notable projects including the Emirates-CHES Home in Sri Lanka for HIV-positive children, educational initiatives in rural India, and medical support in Bangladesh. In Kenya, the Foundation aids several organizations like The Little Prince Nursery and Alfajiri Street Kids. South African and Zimbabwean projects include Fikelela Children’s Centre and Singakwenza, while Brazil’s Saint Rita de Cassia Orphanage and Externato Sao Francisco de Assis benefit from the Foundation’s support.
Additionally, the Foundation assists local initiatives in Dubai, such as the SAFE Centre for Autism. In the past year alone, it has facilitated over 500 flight tickets for volunteers undertaking global medical and educational missions.
Regulated by Dubai’s Islamic Affairs and Charitable Activities Department, the Emirates Airline Foundation continues to strive for sustainable, meaningful impact across its diverse projects.
