ZaraMart is much more than a shopping website. It is a place to express our unity and belonging as a people, and our strong link to Israel.
Israel is facing, again, challenging days of bombardments and combat. We would like to share with you our prayers for the well-being of the residents of Sderot and Ashkelon, as well as for the safety of the IDF soldiers.
Thank you, our dear customers, for all the love and support that you have been expressing.
Plant a Tree in Israel - It's Free!
Place an order over $400 and we will be happy to invite you to plant - for free (we pay!) - a tree in the Jerusalem Forest. You will receive a certificate with your personal inscription. The certificate will be issued on your name and mailed directly to you. It will be followed with an actual tree planted by the Jewish National Fund (JNF) foresters. By accepting this free gift from ZaraMart, you assist JNF to continue its afforestation activities.

We feel blessed to have our customers standing by Israel at these difficult times. You make us stronger.
He Who makes peace in His heights, may He make peace upon us, and upon all Israel Ose shalom b'mromav hu ya'ase shalom aleinu ve al kol Israel.
ZaraMart is always happy to support Jewish community events and charity organizations. ZaraMart is proud in making an effort at the following two types of activities:
1. Israeli Charity Promotions in these promotions we donate a percentage of buys made by our customers to Israeli charities. The donation is on our account, of course, and there is no extra cost for you! We run these charity promotions on a periodical basis and focus with each promotion on a different category of products and a specific charity organization.Check for the current promotion! More details
2. Supporting Jewish Community Events this is our opportunity to thank you for standing with Israel and to express Jewish solidarity with the Jewish Diaspora. We do so by supporting Jewish community events with free gifs from our store. More details
Israeli Charity Promotions
Several times a year, we run promotions in which we promise to pass, on our account, a percentage of the sales from a certain category to a specific Israeli charity organization. You just pay the regular price of the products, and we donate to Israeli charities, on our sole account and at no extra cost for you. Isn't it wonderful?
Just check which promotion is currently running and support Israel twice one, by buying from Israel; second, by allowing us, at no cost for you, to donate a percentage of your buy to an Israeli charity.
The donations, together with contribution from others in Israel and abroad, allow Israeli charities to carry out their mission and help Israeli causes related to terror victims, food, environment and more. No donation is too small. More information can be found in each organization's website.

Supporting Jewish Community Events
Another way for us to express Jewish solidarity is to support Jewish community events. This is our precious opportunity to take part and get involved in the community life of the Jewish Diaspora. We have supported, for example, a Chanukkah Party of Emerson Hillel College, B'nai Mitzvah preparation event at Temple Beth Ami Religious School in Rockville, Maryland, and more.
If you would like us to support of sponsor your event or organization, please write to us at albert@ZaraMart.com with the details, and we'll write you back.
Here is a list of the community events that we have supported so far.
