Another great accomplishment for Maccabi: the Club was awarded today (Thursday) the President’s Award for Sport for its excellence in social and community activity during the 2024/25 season.
President of Israel, Isaac Herzog, and his wife Michal hosted the ceremony at the President’s residence, held as part of the “Team Game” initiative. Among those present were Maccabi CEO Ben Mansford, Deputy CEO of Business Development Daniel Levy, and representatives of the Maccabi Foundation, Yonet Nakri and Heli Amzaleg, who received the award accompanied by Idan Berman, brother of the hostages Gali and Ziv, as well as Tom Damari, brother of survivor Emily Damari. As part of the project, clubs are honored for their community activity. This year’s 10th edition of the ceremony, was held under the theme of the Iron Swords War.
Leading our extensive community activity is, of course, the Maccabi Tel Aviv FC Foundation, which received recognition for its extensive and wide-ranging efforts over the past year on behalf of the community, during this challenging period we are all experiencing. This is also an opportunity to thank the “Ahim Lassemel” organization for their important partnership throughout the year, which enabled such broad activity for so many people.
The Maccabi Foundation is a social initiative that serves the community in Tel Aviv and across Israel, its vision is to positively impact Israeli society by channeling the positive energy of football into wide-ranging activity for creating social change.
