Who We Are

A Palestinian story of perseverance, written by Palestinians.

Founded in Geneva in 1983 by a group of Palestinian business leaders and intellectuals, Taawon (Welfare Association) was created to invest in the development of Palestinian society — wherever it lives.

Today, we are one of the largest Palestinian non-profits in the world, working across the West Bank, Jerusalem, Gaza, the 1948 territories, and the diaspora camps in Lebanon — half of those we serve are women.

What We Do

Four pillars of long-term Palestinian development.

We invest where it matters most — in the institutions, people and communities that build a self-sustaining society.

Education

From early childhood through university, scholarships, teacher training and school development.

Culture & Identity

Protecting Palestinian heritage — Old City of Jerusalem, museums, libraries, art and storytelling.

Health

Quality, accessible healthcare — from cancer care to ophthalmology and primary clinics.

Livelihoods

Supporting farmers, small businesses and women-led enterprises to build economic resilience.
