Americans for a Vibrant Palestinian Economy was founded on the simple premise that building bridges between American & Palestinian business people breeds hope for a better future for Palestinians through tangible economic opportunity. Hope breeds change for the betterment of Palestinian society, and a better relationship with the rest of the world. Our nonprofit organization encourages lasting engagement and relationships between Americans and Palestinians. When impediments on the ground are lifted, these lasting relationships will support a vibrant Palestinian economy and, in the meantime, every business transaction and job created plant another seed of hope that keeps Palestinians constructively engaged towards a future of freedom and economic independence. We build bridges that carry activities that improve human capital as well as activities that are economic in nature.
