Helping our United Hatzalah Heroes
Message to sponsors
On the morning of Saturday, Oct 7, a devastating attack by Hamas shook the State of Israel, claiming the lives of over a thousand innocent Israeli citizens and leaving thousands more wounded. This event marked the most significant assault on Israel since the Yom Kippur War, half a century ago. In the critical early hours of the Simchat Torah massacre, United Hatzalah of Israel demonstrated remarkable courage and dedication by deploying hundreds of volunteers to the front lines. They worked tirelessly to provide immediate care to the injured and sick. However, their work is far from over. United Hatzalah urgently requires our support to continue their life-saving efforts. Our goal is to raise $100,000, which will be evenly distributed across three crucial areas. These funds will bolster United Hatzalah's invaluable Psychotrauma First Response Team, ensuring they can deliver mental health first aid on the scene during times of crisis. Additionally, a portion of the funds will be directed toward acquiring essential ballistic armor, safeguarding the safety of the volunteers who risk their lives to save others. Lastly, the remaining amount will be dedicated to purchasing much-needed medical supplies to maintain their mission's effectiveness. Your support is crucial in helping these heroes in orange continue their vital work. Join us in making a difference and ensuring the safety and well-being of those affected by this tragic event. Together, we can provide hope and healing in these challenging times.
