United Hatzalah volunteer Keren Foster was at home in Ramat Beit Shemesh cooking dinner for her family when she got a call about a young girl having an anaphylactic reaction to food she ate in gan. Keren ran out of her house and in just 90 seconds arrived at the girl’s home address and administered an EpiPen, saving her life.

Every day, United Hatzalah responds to many similar allergic reaction calls. In the critical moments of a life-threatening emergency, an EpiPen can be the only tool against a terrifying fate. Yet, EpiPens expire. These pocket-sized lifesavers, filled with vital Epinephrine, have a shelf life of just one year. Our supply of EpiPens for our dedicated medics is about to expire, leaving thousands across Israel at risk.

Most anaphylactic reactions, especially in children, occur within the safety of their own homes. Quick access to an EpiPen, administered by a trained professional, is a surefire way to save lives. This is where you come in.

We are in dire need of your support to equip our volunteer medics with lifesaving EpiPens capable of reversing fatal allergic reactions. Your generous donation of $135 provides a 2-pack that can offer crucial medical assistance to both adults and children. With your help, our goal is to secure as many packs as possible for our dedicated volunteers, ensuring that no one’s life hangs in the balance due to an expired EpiPen.
