About Us

Zatoun is the Palestinian name for olives and for Palestinians the olive tree represents resilience, peace and hope for a free Palestine which is the inspiration behind Zatoun Apparel. 

Zatoun Apparel was formed by a group of Australian Palestinians from various backgrounds with a focus not only to bring peace and hope but to support Palestinians in a time of need and to bring awareness of the flight of the Palestinian people and their nation 

Our well designed range of apparel tells the story of the rich culture, heritage, and history of Palestine, upholding Palestinians traditions. 

Our mission statement is simple 

The conflict in the region began in the late 19th century. In 1948, over 750,000 Palestinians were displaced during the event known as the Nakba. In recent times, we have seen the conflict escalate to extreme levels, resulting in a horrendous and devastating toll on civilian life. Thousands of children, women, men, and the elderly have lost their lives, and over 2 million civilians have been displaced from their homes. The humanitarian situation is dire. It feels like the Nakba all over again. 

With the destruction of hospitals, emergency services, schools, and other essential social infrastructures, access to basic necessities such as shelter, electricity, food, and clean water has become severely limited. As a result, the affected populations heavily rely on assistance from humanitarian aid organizations and other nations. 

Zatoun Apparel was formed with one objective to stand with Palestine, we stand with Palestine by partnering with two charity organisations 

• Olive Kids that support kids and families in Palestine  

• Palestine Australia Relief and Action (PARA) which support Palestinian refugees trying to establish a life in Australia. 

As commitment to you and these charities 100% of the profits that is created through the Zatoun Apparel will be donated evenly between these two charities.
