“My mother taught me how to be able to celebrate Palestine by welcoming guests to have our food. So, cook Palestinian wherever you are, because you are part of preserving that culture and telling the world we exist.” Fadi Kattan

Host a Supper Club for Palestine this Summer
A Delicious Way To Fundraise

Host a Supper Club for Palestine this summer, share Palestinian-inspired dishes and raise funds for Amos Trust’s vital work in Palestine.

Join us as we honour Palestinian culture by bringing friends, family, or your local community together for a meal as an act of cultural resistance that supports our Gaza and West Bank appeal. Whether it’s a cosy dinner at home or a bigger gathering at a venue, it’s a simple but powerful way to stand in solidarity with Palestinians.

How it works:

• Invite friends, family or colleagues for a meal
• Cook a few simple Palestinian dishes (don’t worry, we’ll share some easy recipes)
• Ask guests to donate what they would spend on a meal out
• Enjoy great food, conversation and solidarity

“Where politics has been the tool for Israel to divide us, culture has been our tool of uniting ourselves... and that’s why it’s really important for the solidarity of our friends to understand that, we are not that self-centric that we want to eat hummus all the time, but it has become a way of resilience and looking inward to ourselves, putting a nice warm jacket on ourselves by keeping participating and celebrating the cultural element of the Palestinians.” Mahmoud Muna — The Bookseller of Jerusalem

Your Supper Club Toolkit
Everything you need to host your own Supper Club for Palestine

1. Getting Started

• Pick a date
• Decide how many guests to invite
• Set a price per head (if you’re charging)
• Spread the word and get your Supper Club underway.

2. Delicious Palestinian Recipes
We’ve put together a selection of our favourite Palestinian dishes from Amos Trust’s Sally Azzam and our friend Phoebe Rison from The Olive Tree Kitchen— simple, flavourful and perfect for sharing. You can download the recipes here.

We recommend Zaytoun and Shorkk for buying ethically sourced Palestinian and middle eastern spices, oils and ingredients online.

3. Fundraising
Your Supper Club is more than a meal — it’s a chance to raise vital funds for our Gaza and West Bank appeal.

You can fundraise by:

• Charging guests a set amount per head
  e.g. £20 to cover food and fundraising, collect the total amount raised and send it to us by making one single donation online here
• Asking guests to donate directly to our Gaza Appeal, referencing your Supper Club.

4. Make your evening meaningful
Add something extra to the night by sharing more about Palestine’s rich culture and history. You could:

• Read a Palestinian poem
• Show a short film about one of our partners in Palestine
• Share information about Amos Trust’s campaigns and upcoming events
• To help make your Supper Club even more special, we’ve curated a Spotify playlist for you to enjoy during your event. 

5. Share your Supper Club
We’d love to see your Supper Club in action!

• Tag us on your socials at @amos_trust and help raise awareness about Palestinian culture
• Not on Socials? No problem — simply email your photos to [email protected] — your event might just inspire others to host their own Supper Club for Palestine.
