Our Story
Help Palestine Community Co-operative Ltd is a not-for-profit business which exists to provide a market for farmers and artisans in Palestine. We ensure that they receive a fair price for their quality produce. We buy many of our products through Bethlehem Fair Trade artisans and Zaytoun as well as sourcing items directly from individual artisans. "My life has completely changed" says Nidal "So many artisans have already left, trying to get a better life. But me? I am glad I stayed. With your help I am giving my family a good life". Life was difficult before Covid 19, but now with no tourism, carpenters like Nidal are dependent on selling goods overseas
