Support women's cooperatives & artisans in Palestine, shopping fair trade. We donate all money raised to Palestinian non profit Mashjar Juthour.
Shop Made in Palestine is a labor of love.
We are actually a Mashjar--a non profit nature reserve in Palestine. Surprise, right?
We have two aims in opening Shop Made in Palestine. First, our nature reserve's mission is protecting and promoting natural heritage, and a lot of what Palestinian artisans and crafts folks are making is part of that natural heritage, like handmade recycled paper using heirlooms seeds and native flower petals or woven baskets from native reeds. So we thought our Mashjar should support and promote the work of these folks. How better to do that than through a shop!
Secondly, because nature is not a funding priority in Palestine, we struggle to get support for work we think is super important here. Thus we decided to empower ourselves by finding ways to generate income and then using that income for our non profit work of planting trees and educating our community about the environment and Palestine's amazing natural heritage.
So please, Shop Made in Palestine and support local craftspeople and artisans while also knowing that 100% of the profit is helping us work towards a green, sustainable future for Palestine!
