This is YOUR opportunity to put Palestine back on the map. And help the Palestinian people for good.


Every £ you give helps us to create an enormous Palestinian directory of destinations and businesses - promoting tourism, foreign investment and, essentially, compassion and understanding. Forever.


What is Welcome to Palestine?

Welcome to Palestine is already the world’s largest online encyclopaedia of Palestine in English. Our team has already documented 200 villages, towns and cities and now we want to finish the job!


We have calculated there to be 410 Palestinian destinations remaining. With your support we will document every last Palestinian destination to include those in Gaza, the West Bank and Israel.


The development of such pages gives us a solid platform from which we can build an up-to-date business directory for those businesses in a particular destination.

Why support us?

Because we are building a sustainable future for Palestine.

Our destination pages do not only provide an invaluable resource for learning and admiring Palestinian villages, towns or cities, but will also form the framework of a comprehensive Palestinian business directory.

This way, whilst learning about a quaint town nestled in the luscious hills of northern Palestine, our visitors can also explore what local restaurants, cafes, hotels or tourist attractions are available to them.

All this information, means of contacting & booking services, and more, will be provided from EVERY single destination page that we document and publish.
 


How does this help Palestine?


This puts Palestinian business on the map. For good
Our platform will give an online presence to small businesses and therefore exposure to our rapidly growing international audience.

This encourages new business
Providing such a platform for local business will not only provide tourists and locals alike with a valuable guide of what services are available to them, but will also help to create a positive environment for the emergence of new business.

This offers a long term solution
We are not like other organisations. We are not raising money to give immediate relief to a temporary crisis, we are going to build a permanent platform that will benefit Palestinian businesses, offer real hope to the population and change perceptions of Palestine, forever.

This gives Palestinians a chance
Importantly, this entire project offers hope of a brighter future for nearly two million Gazans waking up to military siege; nearly 5 million Palestinians living under military occupation; and over 5 million Palestinians living in diaspora, learning of their homeland through headlines.

We intend to give Palestine a voice and will not stop until the world is listening.


Simply...

If you support our project, you will help facilitate the growth of tourism and business in Palestine.

More people visiting Palestine = more international awareness of the occupation

More people visiting Palestine = more money for local businesses

More people visiting Palestine = more connections with rest of the world

More people visiting Palestine = change.


So, help us to help them

Every pound you give brings Palestine closer to another’s heart.

Please pledge as much as you can.

And share with as many people as you can.

Thank you!


Nb: In order to complete this project we need £103,000, however, we will raise this in phases, starting with this campaign - our first!
