Daniel and Luke Mancuso are the founders of Yiayia Next Door, a social enterprise committed to inspiring kindness and encouraging people to ‘love thy neighbour’ as the most powerful antidote to violence. When Daniel and Luke lost their beloved mother Teresa to domestic violence, the Greek grandmother next door started looking after them by passing home-cooked meals over the fence. This simple act of kindness helped Daniel and Luke navigate the fog of their grief. The story captured the hearts of Australia when the brothers started sharing Yiayia’s meals and their special relationship with her on social media.  

Today, Yiayia Next Door is a powerful voice in family violence education and prevention. Daniel and Luke lead by example, encouraging people to build communities where everyone feels safe, and neighbours connect and care. They work with like-minded organisations, and their products and best-selling cookbook raise awareness and much-needed funds to continue their advocacy.
