Maia Lotus Foundation

The Maia Lotus Foundation is a Canadian non-profit serving as the legal vehicle and fiscal home for Rise Together — a co-creative initiative regenerating heritage lands across Sinai, Cairo, and Aswan in Egypt. Through its Mother Fund, the Foundation channels resources to community-led work in water and soil regeneration, heritage seed revival, indigenous knowledge, and co-creative governance, in partnership with eight Egyptian organizations including SEKEM, Nawaya, Habiba, RDNA, and Together Temple. The Foundation is anchored by Mona Rabie — Canadian-Egyptian, based in Egypt for over 12 years, with a background in corporate transformation and peace work across 70+ countries — alongside a governance team that holds the structure and coherence of the initiative across all three regeneration sites.
