On October 7, 2023, Hamas’s horrific terrorist attack killed 1,200 Israelis, wounded 5,000 others, and took 240 civilians hostage.

Maccabi World Union and the Maccabiah embarked upon a campaign to house, feed, clothe, and provide essential counseling and other services to 800 Israeli evacuees, as well as leverage the power of the international sports community to keep attention focused on the hostage crisis. We succeeded in providing enough support to bridge the 10-month gap in caring for displaced Israelis before the Israeli government stepped in to fund the project. Thank you to all those who helped!

OUR IMPACT

In Their Own Words

Maccabi USA strengthens connections to Jewish identity, community, and Israel. But don’t just take our word for it. Let our athletes, coaches, and staff tell you how the Maccabiah impacted their journeys.

STUART WEITZMAN
SCHOLARSHIP FUND

Generations of young Jewish athletes in financial need can now enjoy a life-changing Maccabiah experience thanks to iconic shoe designer and 4-time Maccabi USA Table Tennis alum, Stuart Weitzman. Maccabi USA’s flag bearer at the 21st Maccabiah provided a matching gift of $4.5M that spurred $2.5M in additional donations and is the largest gift in the organization’s history. Please enjoy our tribute to Stuart!

We are disheartened to hear that Team Ramat Gan – the top Israeli 3x3 men’s basketball team, which includes Maccabi USA alum Niv Konfino – has been excluded from an Olympic qualifying tournament in Versailles due to their country of origin. Sports should provide an opportunity for athletes of... all backgrounds to participate and we are proud to support all Israeli teams and athletes looking to qualify for the Olympic Games, continuing to build Jewish pride through sports.
