The Emirates Airline Foundation and Emirates Auction are joining forces to host an exclusive online auction offering special Emirates Skywards membership numbers with Platinum benefits valid for up to 20 years. From December 17, 2025 to January 17, 2026, bidding will be open for special Platinum membership numbers. The auction will be open to bidders from all over the world.
100% of the funds raised in the Emirates auction will be fully dedicated to the vital work of the Emirates Airline Foundation in supporting vulnerable children around the world. Proceeds from the auction will support 14 non-governmental organizations in 9 countries that mobilize housing initiatives, provide safe places to learn, ensure essential nutrition and health care, provide skills development and vocational training opportunities, and more. Every contribution brings the Foundation closer to its mission of creating lasting, meaningful change in the lives of children; and the auction provides a unique opportunity for donors to play a meaningful role in this transformative work.
Sir Tim Clarke, President of Emirates Airline and Chairman of the Emirates Airline Foundation, said: «This unique auction is an innovative approach to funding that allows us to reach new supporters around the world as we seek to expand the impact of the Emirates Airline Foundation. All donations help us to continue to fund and empower our local non-governmental partners who have deep community roots and first-hand knowledge to ensure that resources are accessed in the most effective way for children. Every donation is more than a Skywards Platinum membership; it is a contribution that creates pathways to lift children and their families out of poverty and create sustainable impact.».
