Olive trees for Palestine
An olive tree planted today will bear olives for generations. With you, we are planting them in the Al-Khalil (Hebron) region.
The project
We are planting olive trees in Palestine, in the Al-Khalil (Hebron) region, to support farmers and the local economy.
The olive tree lives a long time and feeds the families who grow it, year after year. Taking part in these plantings is a charity that keeps on giving over time.
