In 2022 the children of the primary school Al Yaqoet in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, did a sponsor run for Palestine. With the money they raised 325 olive trees have been planted. Plant een Olijfboom (Plant an Olive Tree) our partner in the Netherlands visited every classroom with kids 4 to 12 years old, to talk about Palestine and raise awareness. By planting these trees, the new generation took action and has planted hope for the future.

Huda Bakboord is a teacher at al Yagoet School, she came to visit Palestine in 2022 and took part in the Olive Picking Program. Huda also visited one of the field where the sponsored trees were planted. Huda said we will always do our best to teach the children in the Netherlands about the injustice that our Palestinian friends and sisters face on the daily basis. Planting olive trees is the best way to resist the Israeli occupation. Also it is a holy tree and it was mentioned in the Qur'an.
