Zatoun is a non-profit organization, run by volunteers, that sells fair
trade Palestinian olive oil. The proceeds from all sales are used to
directly benefit Palestinian farmers and children living in occupied
Palestine and to create awareness for peace in the region.  Zatoun ensures
that Palestinian farmers receive fair trade prices, and one dollar from each
bottle goes to support charities that promote humanitarian, education,
culture and peace links with Palestine, especially as they may relate to
Palestinian children.  An additional amount goes to replant olive trees
inside Palestine which have been destroyed by the occupation.
