Part 2: 10 Additional Palestinian-Owned Brands to SUPPORT Today and Every Day!

From June 6-12, it is Palestine Economic Week - this is your opportunity to boycott Israeli products and companies supporting the occupation and use our dollars to support businesses that support the Palestinian Economy by buying from businesses that employ Palestinians, empower Palestinian Refugees, and were started by Palestinians.  
As conscious consumers, we always want to make sure that our purchases are making an impact. We only purchase from brands that we feel align with our own value and causes. Given the current situation, what better way to show unity with Palestine than purchasing directly from their people!
