Founded in 1921 and headquartered in Israel, the Maccabi World Union (MWU) is a non-profit organization with approximately 60 employees in 2023. It is the world's largest Jewish sports organization, encompassing over 450,000 members in 450 clubs across 80 countries on five continents. The MWU, a Zionist organization, uses sports and informal educational activities to foster connections among Jewish people of all ages and to promote engagement with Judaism and Israel, while aiming to remain above political and sectarian divisions.
Maccabi World Union, in partnership with Maccabi USA, conducted Maccabiah Camp Experience programs at Camp Judaea in Hendersonville, NC, on an unspecified date. Campers participated in basketball, karate, and soccer clinics with Maccabiah athletes. Due to security concerns stemming from the war with Iran, the 22nd Maccabiah Games, originally scheduled for July 2025, were postponed to summer 2026. This decision resulted from a joint announcement by Maccabi World Union, the Maccabiah Organising Committee, and Minister of Culture and Sports Miki Zohar, following security evaluations and government consultations. Colgate Israel visited Kfar Maccabiah and the Jewish Sports Museum on an unspecified date to mark the beginning of a partnership for Maccabiah 2025.
