Who I Am

Salam guys! Waheeb here, as I'm always preaching for the Palestinian cause, i've finally been given the opportunity to do something about it! In March 2020, I'll be going to Palestine after raising this 10K, and I want you all to help me get there.

What I'm Doing It For

Palestine always. The olive trees you all will help me plant will benefit the economy of Palestinian farmers and give them a means of income and food.

As a source of livelihood, olive farming and production is crucial as 14% of the Palestinian economy is comprised of olive products such as oil, soap, pickles, etc.

​How It Works

​Donating just $20 contributes to the all-inclusive products for the lifespan of one olive tree:

$4 Tree

$12 Irrigation System

$2 Fencing

$2 Manure/Fertilizer

​How I'm Going to Palestine

Penny Appeal USA has provided me this opportunity through their Challenges Program. The challenge was raise $10,000 towards PAUSA's Palestine program and I get to join the Penny Appeal Team on this trip! It'll be a 5-day trip including the Annual Run Palestine Marathon, a food-parcel distribution to refugees, and a visit to Masjid Al Aqsa!
