Emergency Campaign for Magen David Adom
 

In response to the war in Israel, Temple Emeth's Israel/Arza Committee initiated an emergency campaign to raise $5,000, by the end of Chanukah, for American Friends of Magen David Adom (AFMDA), the primary ambulance service in Israel. Please give generously so Temple Emeth can show its support for Israel and pikuach nefesh (saving lives).
