As part of the Help Gaza Now campaign, which Arci is promoting together with ARCS to support the civilian population of Gaza, a special solidarity initiative has been launched: a bottle of extra virgin olive oil to directly contribute to humanitarian aid.
Quality, Rights, Solidarity
Oil for Peace is San Sebastiano extra virgin olive oil, packaged in an elegant 0.5-liter dark glass bottle. It is a high-quality product, made only from olives and processed exclusively through mechanical means by Paneolio – Impresa Sociale, an agricultural cooperative from the Arci Perugia group that combines farming, social inclusion, and a culture of legality.
For each bottle purchased, 7 euros will be directly donated to the people of Gaza through the solidarity bridge established with the Remedial Education Centre (REC).
The Label Signed by Gianluca Costantini
Adding even more value to this initiative is the limited-edition label designed by Gianluca Costantini, a world-renowned artist and activist. His illustrations portray conflicts, denied rights, and civil struggles — a distinctive mark that turns each bottle into a small manifesto for peace.
How to Purchase
Oil for Peace is available on the fair-trade e-commerce platform Gioosto, promoted by Next.
For Arci Committees, 100 bottles are available for direct distribution, at a contribution of 13 euros each.

Gaza Still Needs Us
Since last May, Arci and ARCS have been sending direct monthly contributions to people in need in Gaza, allowing them to purchase essential goods such as food, clothing, medicine, and hygiene products. We have already sent over 60,000 euros, without waiting for the disbursement of the 5×1000: immediate support, without intermediaries, reaching directly those who need it most.
To continue acting this way, allocate your 5×1000 to Arci APS.
In your 730, CU, or Unico tax form, enter the tax code 97054400581 in the box labeled “Support for Third Sector entities registered with RUNTS.”
Every bottle, every signature, every gesture can make a difference. Keep going.
