Floyd Mayweather calls Israel his ‘home away from home’

Mayweather has been actively supporting Israel since the outbreak of conflict last year. He has used his private plane to deliver essential medical supplies to the nation.

During his previous visit in March, he met soldiers, rescue workers, and civilians, showing solidarity with those affected by the ongoing situation.

His recent trip included visits to an Israel Defense Forces base where he hosted a barbecue for military personnel, and the headquarters of United Hatzalah, Israel's largest volunteer emergency medical service.

Mayweather was also honoured in Jerusalem with the the Champion for Israel award, which he received at the Dan Family Aish World Center for his advocacy against antisemitism and hate.

This special recognition is reserved for individuals who actively stand against such issues and support Israel, further highlighting Mayweather’s commitment to making a positive impact in the region.

Last week it was announced that Mayweather made a donation of $100,000 to United Hatzalah to help purchase 100 bulletproof vests, enhancing the safety of their volunteers amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict.
