- Donors can leave a symbolic handprint on the aircraft
- Airbus with special livery to fly throughout Europe from fall onwards
Exactly 25 years ago, Lufthansa Group employees in Frankfurt am Main founded the help alliance, Lufthansa Group’s aid organization. To mark this anniversary, Europe’s largest aviation company is sending a clear sign of support across the continent: an Airbus A321neo with the lettering ‘help alliance’ and many colorful “helping hands” will be flying in Lufthansa’s European route network from autumn.
The aircraft with the help alliance sticker pays tribute to all the people who have shown great commitment to the aid organization over the past 25 years and collects donations. Those who hurry can symbolically leave a colorful handprint on the plane. There is space for a total of 300 handprints on the aircraft – they can be purchased at helpalliance.org. The money will be used to provide children in Africa and India with school books and meals, among other things.
Vivian Spohr, patroness of help alliance, says:
“It makes me proud and grateful that Lufthansa is sending out a strong and highly visible signal on the 25th anniversary of help alliance. The aid organization would be inconceivable without people who care for those who need support – either actively in projects around the world or as donors. The “helping hands” on the plane are a tribute to their great work. Every donation helps to give children all over the world a better future. With help alliance, we are taking responsibility – in the past and in the future, because we still have a lot to do.”
