H.H. SHEIKHA SANA AL MAKTOUM SHARES HAPPINESS WITH UNDERPRIVILEGED CHILDREN AT DUBAI'S ONLY INDOOR RAINFOREST, THE GREEN PLANET
Her Highness was accompanied by 15 underprivileged children during a special visit, arranged in collaboration with Emirates Red Crescent
Dubai, XX June 2022: H.H. Sheikha Sana Al Maktoum has recently visited Dubai's only indoor rainforest, The Green Planet, accompanied by 15 orphans and other underprivileged children. The visit was arranged in collaboration with Emirates Red Crescent, which is currently taking care of the children.
During the visit, the children enjoyed close encounters with The Green Planet's plethora of exotic wildlife, including the region's only bearcat. The children also had their senses further ignited as they were treated to experiences such as the Rainforest Thunderstorms, and Creatures of The Night, where nocturnal animals can be watched live in action during the day.
Sheikha Sana has long been passionate about women empowerment and children's education, and has been on the ground working on discovering what women and children need – from creating and donating a painting called '63'4 for the Art 4 Sight auction organized by Noor Dubai and Sotheby's to help raise money for the visually impaired, to celebrating UAE National Day with children of determination at Al Noor Training Centre, and hosting a lunch for orphans in collaboration with Red Crescent UAE. Sheikha Sana also visits schools around Dubai and contributes to their reading programs through impactful donations to libraries. She has also inaugurated Fakeeh University Hospital's new breast clinic. She said, "I was delighted to host a special group of children from Emirates Red Crescent in collaboration with The Green Planet. It gave me so much joy to see the wonder and delight in their eyes as we walked through the bio-dome and interacted with many animals & birds. I would like to thank Dubai Holding Entertainment for doing an amazing job in creating & providing such an engaging learning environment for the children of today. I'm sure they will remember this experience throughout their lifetime."
