MARVA is a unique Israeli organization that uses a holistic approach in addressing the problems of maintaining quality of life and independence for both elders facing the challenges of aging and for individuals with physical or mental disabilities. The founders of MARVA, led by Dr. Michal Wosner and now directed by Dr. Mickey Schindler, have created a program that combines both legal and social welfare expertise to help with decision-making and regaining control over one’s life. Our funds are directed to general operating expenses.
