RulalaCreations, a non-profit Palestinian-owned retail and fashion company, is based in Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates. Rula Qamar is the proud owner and founder of the company, and orchestrates traditional hand-stitched and embroidered Palestinian heritage designs on all of her products. Hats, aprons, purses, cover-ups, and a variety of other accessories are carefully crafted using brightly colored beads and threads to represent the strength in Palestinian tradition. Since the COVID-19 Pandemic outbreak, RulalaCreations now features hand-stitched masks.
RulalaCreatoins' humanitarian efforts are geared towards supporting Palestinian students. Every three to four items sold provide one hour of medical school for students living in Gaza. Mask proceeds are also donated to Beit Al Baraka in Beirut, Lebanon, which provides social security to Lebanese families.
