The Emirates Airline Foundation’s board of directors, made of Emirates Group management, decides on what projects to target. Most of these projects are located at Emirates’ destinations where local Emirates staff volunteers can participate and oversee their management.

Our projects span the globe from India to Africa, including Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. Our aim is to increase our presence in the markets we fly to and to strengthen local communities by investing in the future of children in need.
