Long Island Chanukah Fundraiser

Campaign Goal: $36,000

Message to donors:

It was a night to remember as we joined together for a meaningful evening celebrating the lifesaving work of Magen David Adom at our Chanukah Celebration and Fundraiser on Thursday, December 18th. This special event featured a festive cocktail and dessert reception, a menorah lighting, and an inspiring presentation by an Israeli Magen David Adom paramedic sharing powerful stories from the field. 

While the event originally launched as an ambulance fundraiser, the generosity of our community allowed us to pivot toward funding a Medicycle—an agile, lifesaving vehicle that enables rapid emergency response in dense urban areas. Thanks to your incredible support, we are already close to reaching our fundraising goal. Your generosity helps ensure that Magen David Adom remains ready to respond to every emergency across Israel—saving lives, delivering care, and bringing hope when every second counts.
