American Friends of Magen David Adom and The Hampton Synagogue celebrated the Fourth of July by helping save lives in Israel. The weekend launched AFMDA’s $1 million campaign to sponsor 10 ambulances for Magen David Adom (MDA). MDA is Israel’s ambulance, blood-services, and disaster-relief organization, serving as emergency medical first responders for the state’s more than 8 million people. MDA is the only organization mandated by the Israeli government to serve in this role, but it’s not a government agency, so it relies on people like us for funding.
