The Beth Jacob Advanced Ambulance Fund for Israel - Beth Jacob Congregation
In response to Israel's Operation Protective Edge, and amid our grief over the kidnapping and murders of Naftali Fraenkel, Gilad Shaer and Eyal Yifrach z"l, Hy"d, the Beth Jacob leadership consulted with American Friends of Magen David Adom, and decided to raise the funds necessary to sponsor a new advanced ambulance in Israel. Our community responded expediently, and within two weeks, we had raised $100,000 for this life-saving project. We have dedicated the ambulance to the memory of our three boys, Naftali, Gilad, and Eyal z"l, Hy"d. We express our profound appreciation to all who participated.
