Maman in Action
Since the devastating October 7th 2023 terrorist attack on Israel, Maman’s network sprung into action. Maman has swiftly shifted focus to aid the most vulnerable in Israel to provide life-saving supplies and medicine.
Only 6 days after the October 7th attack, Maman dispatched 2 tons of requested supplies to Israel via Floyd Mayweather's plane. We have been committed to providing assistance to displaced families, survivors, and general aid for the people of Israel.
We've also created local partnerships in Israel to make an immediate impact on the ground, extending a lifeline to those in urgent need. We partnered with Amen, a nonprofit in Israel that provides trauma-healing therapy. With Amen, we were able to immediately reach the displaced Kibbutz Be’eri residents staying at the Dead Sea Hotels and provide some relief.
We also partnered with Leket and MedisonAid to distribute life-saving supplies. Maman’s Direct to IDF Leader, Adinah Finn, has sent over $XX worth of gear for the IDF soldiers stationed in Gaza and in the north by spearheading our Direct to IDF initiative.

Many teenage kibbutz survivors and southern communities affected by the war have had their happiness stolen from them by the massacres of October 7th. Because of this unspeakable trauma, these kids are falling through the cracks.
Our mission with this project is to promote the tools necessary to cope, and to help them instill life skills and coping mechanisms.
Maman has created a 3-part program for teenagers:
-
Crafting Happiness: organizing fun activities (e.g., theme parks and sports games), providing speaking opportunities/platforms
-
Prioritizing Healing: various trauma healing therapies - art yoga, sound therapy, massage, spiritual healing, leadership workshops, and retreats. This includes continued therapy and peer support for at least 6 months post-trip.
-
Community Support: Facilitate connections with peers who share trauma experiences, connecting survivors to American peers and the LA community, support the host families that are providing room, board, and essentials for teens.
