Emirates has distributed limited-edition handcrafted backpacks and essential stationery from its ‘Aircrafted KIDS’ collection to more than 800 students in Jordan. The initiative aims to provide students with learning essentials and reflects the airline’s ongoing commitment to supporting youth in the communities it serves.

Mohammad Bin Hafiz, Emirates’ Country Manager for Jordan and West Bank, stated, “Education is a fundamental driver of progress, and through Aircrafted KIDS, we want to help children have access to resources necessary to build a better, successful future. We have been a part of Amman’s skies since the beginning of our operations, dating back to 1986 and share a long and storied history in this country. We are proud to have invested in not just scaling our operations over the years but also in the local community.”

Tala Sweis, Director of Madrasati, commented, “We are grateful for our partnership with Emirates. It goes beyond mere distribution of schoolbags; it carries a message of hope, joy, and learning. These bags have touched our students’ hearts, inspiring them to dream bigger and strengthening their sense of responsibility towards our world.”

Areej Khatib, Fund Development and Communications Director at SOS Children’s Villages, added: “A child’s school bag holds more than just books, it carries the beginning of a dream and marks the first step toward a future we believe in and strive to build with every child.”

The backpacks are handmade by Emirates Engineering staff using reclaimed materials from the airline's Airbus A380 and Boeing 777 aircraft that are being refurbished. Over 50,000 kg of materials were repurposed for this collection.
