“Gaza, you’ll never walk alone” is an international fundraising campaign for the people of Gaza built around a hip design with a serious message, featured on our ethically produced, organic cotton t-shirts, caps and tote bags. Buy these cool products for yourself or those you love (what cooler and more meaningful gift could you get?!) knowing that all profits go to three organizations working to support Palestinians in Gaza and helping advocates to speak out for a future built on freedom, justice and dignity: UNRWA,  Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) and Makan. Sport the products to show your solidarity.

The design is upbeat, warm and assertive: the watermelon motif, which symbolises Palestinian national aspirations, encompasses the words “You’ll never walk alone” in Arabic and English on the t-shirts, or in English or Arabic versions of the caps and tote bags.

This campaign embodies the solidarity that goes to the heart
of the phrase “You’ll never walk alone”, which has evolved in usage
and affiliation on its cultural ‘carousal’ since 1945. This campaign has no affiliation with, nor endorsement by, Liverpool Football Club or Celtic FC – though it welcomes their fans to share the love and spirit of humanity that is desperately needed at the moment.

UNRWA and MSF provide vital support to Palestinians in a number of critical ways: emergency aid, medical and psychological support, education, primary health care and mental health care, relief and social services, emergency assistance and much more. Makan is
a Palestinian-led, UK-based charity that works to support advocates to speak out as part of a community that is not only well-informed, interconnected, and empowered, but passionately committed to cultivating a future for Palestinians built on freedom, justice, and dignity.

The graphic was designed by Lebanese lettering artist Samer Bou Saleh, with the English version adapted by Bethan Emerson, a UK-based graphic artist.

(Ever wondered what’s with Palestine and watermelon? Following Israel’s occupation of Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem, Israel banned any display of the Palestinian flag in public. Because the local fruit's colours match the Palestinian flag, Palestinians used the watermelon as a symbol to circumvent and protest against the ban.)

This campaign has been proudly organized by Pressure Cooker Arts, a UK-based not-for-profit with a focus on Palestinian rights.
