Introducing the Palestine scrunchie. This has been exclusively designed for DBC in collaboration with @kfennerart, meaning no one else has it, and is full of the icons inspired by Palestinians, their country, culture and most importantly their freedom. This is perfect for any book lovers out there who want to add a bookish touch to their daily wardrobe.
PLEASE NOTE: I accidentally ordered the incorrect fabric so these are slightly cheaper but are still perfect quality. They are non stretchy and the scale will be 5% smaller in the final scrunchies. There are only 15 of these available and once they are gone they won't restock - they will just be the normal style.
This design was created for the Palestine Charity Collection - a collection to help raise awareness for those in Palestine, along with funding for the charities still on ground and able to distribute what little aid they can. I will be donating £1 from each scrunchie sale to the following charities:
If you would like more information on both charities please see the tabs on this listing. You can also find pages on my website for Palestine Charity Resources and Palestine Resources which provides ways you can help outside of this collection.
My goal is to donate to as many charities as possible and of course it was difficult to start with just one or two, but these felt like the right places to begin. If the charities change, there will be regular updates on here and my social media platforms.
All donations will be made at the end of each month and halved between the two chosen charities, I will also provide updates each month on how much has been raised/donated.

North Gaza Water Initiative
The first charity I’ll be donating to is through the organisation chuffed and is for the North Gaza Water Initiative. This has been set up by Noor, a Palestinian American who is originally from the West Bank. Noor is currently in America, but she is working alongside a team of people who are on the ground in Gaza. This team are risking their lives every single day to help provide water aid to families who are in unbearable conditions.
Due to the humanitarian crisis currently happening in Gaza there are many who are going days or longer without any water and when they get water, it isn’t always clean. So far they have successfully delivered 11 water trucks to the north and they are aiming to get 32 more distributed. 43 trucks is no where near enough for the amount of people there, so this campaign is looking for donations to keep providing aid.
With your support, they will:
- Continue delivering fresh water to North Gaza in coordination with trusted local teams.
- Distribute food supplies alongside water as soon as the blockade is lifted and it becomes safe to do so.
- Sustain this ongoing relief project until communities can access consistent, clean resources again.
All funds will go directly toward:
- Fuel and rental costs for water trucks
- Water purification and distribution systems
- Food procurement and packaging
- Safe delivery logistics in coordination with our Gaza team
- We are committed to full transparency and direct impact. Every donation helps us deliver real aid to real people—mothers, children, and elders who have been left to suffer in silence.
The goal is currently $25K and as of today (Monday 23rd June) they are just over $22K. They also want to help deliver food supplies but due to the blockade this currently is not possible right now but once the siege is hopefully broken they will provide this aid.

Cruelty-Free Water Project
The second charity I will be donating to is the Cruelty-Free Water Project which is a sister fundraiser to the Cruelty-Free Kitchen (@crueltyfreekitchengaza) who have provided thousands of meals for hundreds of thousands of people (mainly children) to ensure they have been fed.
This came to my attention after seeing a post on social media about their generator used to pump water had broken and they need a new one. The goal for the new generator is $40K and as of today (Monday 23rd June) they have reached just over $8K.
With your donations the team will be able to:
- buy equipment to produce clean, safe drinking water for thousands still in North Gaza
- run daily water distribution from their camp and neighbourhood
- use donations to help fund s the daily power subscription fee needed for the equipment
They provide updates on both their campaigns, letting us know how critical the conditions are in Gaza, and how donations are helping the team provide what is needed.
