who we are
Welcome to Pupa,
In these difficult times when Gaza faces the horrors of war, we find immense hope in the support of the Japanese people. This support is not only a lifeline to help us through the hardships but also a testament to their belief in our future and our ability to innovate and create. Japan, with its deep appreciation for art and craftsmanship, has extended a helping hand to showcase Palestinian and Gazan creativity, reminding the world that Gaza, despite all odds, still carries the seeds of hope and innovation.

Collaborative Journey
Thank you for visiting Pupa’s website! When we launched our brand, we received support from 406 Japanese backers, including Mr. Asakura Masayuki, through crowdfunding. We are deeply grateful to everyone who contributed. Pupa was born from the prayers of many Japanese people for Gaza. My encounter with Rozan dates back to 2017. Through her designs, we created products and introduced the talents of Gaza to the world. On October 7, 2023, when the conflict broke out, Rozan was on a business trip abroad. Unable to return to Gaza, she worked tirelessly in Egypt, sending funds to support her staff. Learning about her dedication, I was inspired to create Pupa as a means of providing ongoing support. Gaza has suffered immense destruction—lives, homes, and memories have been shattered. It is said that even clearing the rubble will take 15 years. Yet, amidst this devastation, Rozan and her team are striving for revival through design. I believe that their designs and their unwavering positive energy will become a beacon of hope for Gaza. Pupa embarks on its journey to bridge Gaza, Japan, and the world, illuminating a path of hope that never fades.
Message from Kiyomi Kitamura
Dear supporters, From the depths of my heart, I extend my sincerest gratitude and appreciation for your invaluable support to me and my team in Gaza. You have given us a renewed chance at life and a priceless hope for a better tomorrow. Your support is a message of love and solidarity, a testament that humanity knows no borders. Amidst the difficult circumstances my homeland is going through, your support has had a profound impact on our lives. It has not only given us the strength to keep going but has also fueled our determination to create, innovate, and work toward a brighter future. Through *Pupa, we carry a shared dream that connects **Japan and Palestine*, embodying the power of art and design in building bridges of hope. To each and every one of you—thank you for being part of our journey, thank you for believing in us, and thank you for giving us the opportunity to shine even in the darkest of times. *With heartfelt love and appreciation,*

A Story of Transformation and Impact


Our Impact
At Pupa, we believe in the profound influence that creativity and resilience can have on individuals and communities alike. Our mission extends beyond crafting beautiful designs—it’s about creating a ripple effect, a Butterfly Effect, that begins with Gaza and spreads across the globe.

A Message of Hope and Resilience
Every product we design carries a piece of Gaza’s story—a story of perseverance, growth, and transformation. In a place where challenges abound, we aim to inspire hope and showcase the resilience of a community that continues to create, dream, and build despite the odds.
Each purchase you make contributes to supporting local talents in Gaza, providing them with opportunities to grow and thrive. Through this platform, we are not only sharing Palestinian culture with the world but also ensuring that Gaza’s creativity has a space to flourish.

The Power of the Butterfly Effect
We are inspired by the concept of the Butterfly Effect—how small actions can lead to significant transformations. At Pupa, every individual involved in this project leaves their unique imprint, just like the intricate patterns on a butterfly’s wings. These imprints, whether from the designer, the artisan, or the customer, contribute to a chain of positive impact that touches lives near and far.
By supporting Pupa, you become part of this ripple effect. Your contribution helps amplify the voices of Palestinian creators and reinforces the message that even in adversity, beauty and innovation can prevail.

Celebrating Individual Imprints
Each person has a unique mark, a distinctive touch that shapes the world around them. Through Pupa, we celebrate this individuality. Whether it’s the thoughtful design of a product or the meaningful choice to support Palestinian craftsmanship, every action has its own significance. Together, these actions create a legacy of creativity, connection, and change.

Building Bridges Between Gaza and the World
Our collaboration with Japan exemplifies the beauty of cross-cultural support and shared visions. It’s a testament to how communities, though worlds apart, can come together to nurture hope and promote growth.
