BBYO New York Supports Israel

On Saturday, the terrorist organization Hamas fired thousands of rockets into Israel, infiltrated Israeli villages and kibbutzim along the Gaza border, and massacred what was meant to be a peaceful music festival. As of this posting, over 4000 rockets have been fired, over 1,000 individuals murdered, close to 3,000 injured, and over 150 individuals, including foreign nationals, have been kidnapped and are being held in Gaza.

Hamas, a terrorist organization and the ruling party of Gaza, has shown a complete disregard for human life. Families have been torn apart, children, women, and elderly have been kidnapped, and individuals are still missing since the start of this war. The pain inflicted on the Israeli people has been heartbreaking. It is significant that in times like these, we stand united as a BBYO community and with our brothers and sisters in Maccabi Tzair, our sibling organization in Israel.

In light of this current crisis, BBYO New York is taking action to help Israel in this time of need. We are raising money to benefit Friends of United Hatzalah, and any donation will help make an impact.

United Hatzalah of Israel is the largest independent, non-profit, fully volunteer Emergency Medical Services organization that provides the fastest and free emergency medical first response throughout Israel. United Hatzalah's service is available to all people regardless of race, religion or national origin.

Let us support and help our friends, family, and the Israeli people by donating to this fundraiser. Your generosity will help those in need, and together we can make a difference. BBYO New York stands with, and will continue to stand with Israel.
