It's officially winter!

AFOPA is clearing out remaining stock from our past winter collections at discounted prices to make room for exciting new merchandise from Palestine.

If you’ve been meaning to pick up winter gear for yourself, friends, or family, this is a great opportunity to do it while directly supporting the movement.

We’d much rather see these pieces out in the community - worn at rallies, events, campuses, and in everyday solidarity - than sitting on our shelves or in storage!

Dear Friends,

This is a difficult time in AFOPA’s history.

Since 2004, AFOPA has fought tirelessly for justice and self-determination for the Palestinian people.

Despite our best efforts, we are facing a serious funding shortfall at a time when this work has never been more important.

We don’t want to scale back, especially now when the work is so urgent. We also don’t want to lose our people who make this work possible.

On 30 May, our community will come together for a powerful night of solidarity, culture and fundraising to help sustain AFOPA’s work in 2026.

We only need to sell 50 more tickets to make a major difference to AFOPA’s financial position and to continue our work into the year.

If you have been considering attending, now is the time to book your seat or organise a table. Tickets avaliable here: https://events.humanitix.com/afopa-annual-gala-dinner
