Magen David Adom

Every dollar makes a difference when it comes to saving lives. We caught up with Elan Kornblum of Great Kosher Restaurants at our AFMDA booth during the JNF-USA Conference, where he hopped on one of Magen David Adom's lifesaving Medicycles to share an important message about the impact of your support. Every donation helps MDA's first responders continue their lifesaving work across Israel, ensuring they can be there when every second counts. Thank you, Elan, for helping us spread the word about MDA's lifesaving mission!
