Room to Heal - Help us rebuild the Glickman Centre
Healing begins in a safe and dignified space.
For women and children escaping violence, a bedroom is more than a place to sleep. It is the first place where fear can ease, privacy is restored, and healing can begin.
Through the Room to Heal campaign, Na’amat Canada is rebuilding 12 bedrooms at the Na’amat Canada Glickman Centre for Family Violence Prevention in Tel Aviv — the first women’s shelter established in Israel.
This is a project Canada helped build. Now, we proudly rebuild it.
Our goal is to raise $140,000 to ensure that every room reflects safety, dignity, and care from the moment a family walks through the door.
We are honoured to announce the
Benny Freedman z”l Match For Hope
Through Holocaust survivor Benny Freedman's Legacy, we have received a generous gift of $70,000 to match every dollar raised toward our $140,000 goal.
The need is urgent.
The impact is immediate.
For more than 30 years the Glickman Centre has provided shelter, counselling, legal support, and rehabilitation programs for women and children experiencing abuse.
The bedrooms are central to this mission.

Our Clubs
Na'amat Canada Montreal is made up of three vibrant clubs — Allon, Daroma, and the Ghita Segal Group. Each has its own personality and traditions, but all share a passion for supporting women and children in Israel and Canada. Whether you're looking for fun social events, meaningful community service, or close friendships with like-minded women, you'll find a place to belong with us.
Meet Our Clubs
Allon Group
Established in the early 1980s by a group of young women, the Allon Group quickly grew to over 50 members within a decade. After a long hiatus — during which members focused on raising families, building careers, or relocating — the group has reunited for a new era. Today, the Allon Group gathers for social events and community service initiatives.
Daroma Group
This senior group has been instrumental in developing many Na’amat leaders over the years, including Montreal and National presidents. Known for their outstanding programs and fundraising efforts, these dedicated members continue to guide and support our organization in meaningful ways.
Ghita Segal Group
Formed in the early 1960s by a close-knit group of friends, this club officially joined Na’amat at the 2014 Convention. Despite some members relocating to warmer climates or closer to family, they remain deeply connected — meeting weekly on Zoom. Their activities include engaging speakers and a book club, and they actively raise funds for Na’amat scholarships for women in Israel.
What We Do
Rhodie Blanshay Benaroch Multipurpose Centre
Located within the Glickman Centre for Family Violence Prevention, this children’s centre holds a special place in the hearts of Montreal members. In memory of Rhodie z”l, whom many knew and loved, we are committed to supporting and enhancing this vital project. Our fundraising efforts ensure the centre continues to provide the highest level of care for children in the shelter.
Montreal Calendar
Each year, we produce a community calendar — available in both print and digital PDF formats — featuring Jewish and secular holidays, Montreal candle-lighting times, and advertisements from local supporters. Community members can include birthdays, anniversaries, and yahrzeits through donations. Distributed free of charge, the calendar supports local businesses while raising awareness about Na’amat.
Mah Jongg Cards
We sell official Mah Jongg League cards annually, with all proceeds supporting our projects and initiatives.
