Mavoi Satum (In Hebrew ג€“ Dead End) was founded in 1995 with the aim of offering assistance to Agunot and Mesoravot Get in Israel. The organization has two main branches of activity:
- We give personal assistance to Masoravot Get and Agunot in their struggle for a Jewish divorce;
- We are publicly working towards promoting a full solution to the problem of get-refusal.
Mavoi Satum's Annual General meeting will take place on
May 25th at 19:00 at Sandra Lozowick's house, Shmuel Lupo 13/5, North Talpiot
We would love to see you there!

To commemorate 13 years since the establishment of Mavoi Satum, and in honor of "Yom HaAguna," which takes place on the Fast of Esther, we are continuing our annual tradition of co-sponsoring the "Women and Religion" film festival with the Jerusalem Cinematheque.

Supper Quiz 2008
Being a host is easy. It involves inviting at least eight friends to your home for the evening of the supper quiz. Each person makes a suggested donation to Mavoi Satum.
We provide a two-part trivia quiz. Answers are emailed or faxed to us during the course of the evening and the results are posted on our website by the next day.
You have a great time and good laugh while helping women in Israel rebuild their lives.
Please contact us at supperquiz@gmail.com if you have any questions about the Supper Quiz or would like to host the event.
