Representatives from the Jordan Aviation, Ministry of Education, and UNICEF were present in the ceremony which was followed by a press conference.

Nasser Moeini, The UNICEF Acting Representative in Jordan said in his opening remarks: “We are very happy to see the active participation of the private sector in social developmental work. UNICEF is particularly thankful to Jordan aviation in its interest in supporting Ma’An Campaign.  UNICEF had more than 800 corporate supporters in 2008.  It ranked 3rd in 2008 Global Accountability report and was rated by the Forbes Magazine as a cost-effective organization.  We hope that corporations in Jordan will follow the example of Jordan Aviation.”
