Turning Pain into Action: Help Us Sponsor an Ambucycle for United Hatzalah
Dear Port Washington Community,
Like all of you, I am heartbroken and shocked by the brutal murders of the Bibas children and their mother Shiri.
We need to turn this pain of hate and murder into life-affirming action!
Three weeks ago our community came together to sponsor a life-saving ambucycle for United Hatzolah of Israel, as a response to hateful fundraising activities at Belisimo Pizza. We have now committed to donate a second ambucycle, dedicated by our community in honor of the Bibas family.
Here’s how this works:
An ambucycle costs $36,000. 10 MATCHING DONORS have agreed to donate $1800 each, for a total of $18,000, IF the community can match it.
Please visit the campaign site at: https://israelrescue.org/mymitzvah/port-washington-jewish-community/ to make your generous donation to help us reach our goal.
