How You Can Support Israel Today

In Israel and nearby communities, many families run small businesses: vineyards, honey producers, jewelry designers, and soap makers. These producers sell through limited export channels and direct buyers. Box contents vary by season and availability.

Small exporters face practical challenges such as finding reliable distributors, higher logistics costs, and meeting certifications that open foreign markets. Outside purchases that favor small producers can provide steady customers and predictable revenue.
Here’s how you can make a real difference: support Israeli families by buying directly from small producers like a Galilean olive grower or a Jerusalem honey cooperative (e.g., Beit HaShita, established 1938).

Subscribe to a Lev Haolam Box

Each monthly box may include a selection of items such as artisanal soap from Ein Gedi (handmade, olive-oil based) with the producer and town listed, echoing local craft traditions like those recorded in Ein Gedi archaeological reports (Ein Gedi, Dead Sea region).

Boxes often name the maker and village to foster a direct bond between buyer and artisan.
Handcrafted jewelry from Jerusalem designers, sometimes from Nachlaot or the Old City workshops, is commonly featured.

Items include maker names like “Studio Yael” or “Jerusalem Workshop” so recipients can trace goods to a real family business.
