Having seen the impact of the funds raised by our first round of Rose Chocolate for Olive Odyssey, we’ve worked with them on a second run of infused chocolate bars, this time to offer support to children injured by the IDF. In anticipation, we caught up with Aya Faour for an update on how your purchase directly impacts individual lives in Palestine:
“Since October 7th, over 200,000 Palestinians have lost their jobs, while approximately 2,000 Gazans who were employed within the borders of 48 (Israel) found themselves forcibly displaced to the West Bank. For many of these Palestinians, their homes no longer exist. Rose and Olive Odyssey have partnered with the volunteer-run nonprofit Palestinian Social Fund, providing $20,000 to secure six months of full-time work for 10 Gazans who have been stranded in the West Bank since the beginning of the genocide.
For our second project, Rose and Olive Odyssey partnered with the cooperative Ard & Zarea (translation: Land and Planting) to donate $6,500 to rebuild a football field for the children of Burin. Burin is a small Palestinian village in the West Bank that is surrounded by illegal Israeli settlements and has suffered tremendously at the hands of settlers.
Your purchase of Rose Chocolate for Olive Odyssey has allowed us to begin restoring a vital space for the community. In times when hope feels elusive, it is the support of our community that sustains us. Your kindness and compassion have been a reminder of the interconnectedness that binds us all. Together, we are not just providing aid; we are offering hope and solidarity and building the future we imagine living in.”
-Aya Faour, Olive Odyssey.
