The 'Hayat' Tote Bag

$15.00

Perhaps you prefer to take your tea on-the-go? This 100% cotton tote is perfect for helping you haul your necessities around while leaving a hand free for the all-important warm beverage. The tote measures 15" x 16" (38.1cm x 40.6cm) and has one ample interior space to hold your goodies.

The 'Hayat' design

Did you know that one way to make tea the Palestinian way is to add sage (مريمية)? 15-year-old Hayat Zaidan shows us how to make tea while living under constant bombardment and drone noise on her TikTok account. Capturing our hearts with her wit and personality, we designed "Tea Time with Hayat" to honor one of her very first TikTok videos. 

Now safely in Cairo, Hayat and her family are now facing new difficulties - how to live in a foreign country with no job, no income, and no ability to leave. Hayat's older brother Karim (check out his design in the OM store!) set up a GoFundMe to help with the evacuation and living expenses. However, all the money donated so far has been used to escape and to find a safe place to live. As Karim leaves to return to his doctoral specialist residency in Germany, the rest of the family is trying to figure out what they can do not to be forced onto the streets. All Hayat and her siblings wish to complete their education, which also requires money the family currently does not have.
