Sending Relief to Israel

Given the recent events that have taken place in Israel, I'm raising money to benefit American Friends of Magen David Adom.

Israel’s national emergency medical service, Magen David Adom, is on the frontlines of saving lives in Israel. With emergency ambulances, boats, helicopters, and motorcycles, MDA is guaranteed to provide the best of care in critical situations.

Being a Jewish woman I have always tried to create community and stand up for what I believe in. Israel holds a strong place in my heart and is one of the most beautiful and special countries I have been to. Words cannot describe the sense of belonging I feel when I visit. I was recently there in May for my best friend's wedding. Her husband, his family, and their friends are being impacted and many are now going to Gaza and the North to protect the Jewish state.

More Jews were killed during Saturday's assault than in any single day since the end of the Holocaust. Over 4000 rockets were fired from Gaza, more than 2500 have been injured, over 150 people have been kidnapped, and more than 900 have died. Unfortunately, these numbers are still increasing. Please take the time to consider making a donation to help Israel.

The picture above was taken during my most recent trip and while I might not be directly impacted, my heart goes out to everyone who is being affected. My employer Oracle will be matching every dollar that is donated so that we can make twice the impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause.
