Nahfeh Studios Fundraiser
Introduction
Nahfeh Studios, a leading artisanal business specializing in crochet goods, is seeking to launch a crowdfunding campaign to support our mission of empowering artisans and expanding our product offerings. This document outlines the plan for our crowdfunding campaign, including our story, goals, rewards, marketing strategies, and timeline.
Our Story
Nahfeh Studios story began in 2014 after two years of Eesa leaving his engineering studies in Aleppo and returning to his hometown of Jableh in Latakia. Facing new challenges, Eesa and his siblings started a small business inspired by their mother's handmade winter clothes. What began with a $10 investment has grown into a flourishing artisanal business. Despite the ongoing challenges, including fleeing to Lebanon, Eesa has continued to collaborate with Syrian women refugees to create authentic, tradition-inspired, and practical handmade products.
Today, I’m entering a new phase. The home you saw in my videos and the studio you loved and asked me about are no longer there. Every piece of them is now in a different place, but I know they are with people who appreciate their value.
At the same time, I don’t want to stop. I want to continue, but I need help to keep Nahfeh going. Soon, I’ll be in Syria, but I truly need a way to expand my work and reach more people worldwide. That’s why I launched a fundraiser, which you can find in my bio.
This crowdfunding campaign will help me restart my business, build a website, create job opportunities for crochet artisans, and train new people in crochet and other crafts. If you can support—even with a small amount—or simply share the link with someone who can donate, you’ll be contributing to a project that will empower the community in Syria, starting from my village and reaching anyone in need across the country.

- Purchase new materials and tools
- Increase production capacity
- Provide more training and support to our artisans
