In this heartwarming and inspiring episode, we meet Michelle Cypes, an American living in Israel, whose response to the tragedy of October 7 was simple, powerful, and deeply personal: she baked cookies.
With one of her sons returning from abroad to serve, Michelle turned to her passion for baking as a way to give back. What started as a few trays of cookies taken to army bases quickly turned into a full-blown operation. As she shared her efforts on social media, the requests poured in—and Michelle rose to meet them, one batch at a time.
Over the last 20 months, she has baked thousands upon thousands of cookies for soldiers across the country, sending sweetness straight to the front lines. From pictures of soldiers in Gaza proudly holding her cookies, to bat mitzvah girls raising funds to support her mission, Michelle’s story is one of selfless giving, creativity, and love in the face of war.
Her cookies may be small, but their impact is huge—a reminder that even the simplest gestures can bring comfort, joy, and humanity in the darkest times.
