$2.50 CAD from each bar sold will be donated directly to fundraisers for Gazan families listed in Funds for Gaza and Operation Olive Branch.

Tbeleh's Zaytoon brand comes from family roots in Nabulsi soap making since 1611. For the last four hundred years, local soapmakers and producers have called upon the Tbeleh family to facilitate the highly specialized process of cutting soap. This is further demonstrated by the locals referring to the Expert Soap Cutter position as the "Tbeleh guy." In the 1970s, the Tbeleh family opened their own soap factory, The Nablus Soap and Cosmetics Company. 

All their traditional soap is Eco Certified Organic and Halal, containing the highest percentage possible, 82%, of ingredients found on the certified organic ingredients list.

About the Palestinian Soap Cooperative: "We're a distributor of traditional Palestinian olive oil soap from Nablus, a city that has continuously produced pure olive oil soap for the past thousand years. Made from three ingredients—virgin olive oil, water, and lye—it is cooked slowly on low heat, before being hand cut, stacked, and dried for up to 8 months."
