United Hatzalah

As a United Hatzalah volunteer, I face new emergency calls and challenges every single day -- last Thursday was no exception.

The mission of United Hatzalah is to save lives and it is that common appreciation for life that united our medics and the Palestinian passersby in the effort to save the trapped Palestinian children.

Very few people in the world will ever have the chance to experience an "interfaith moment" quite like mine. There I stood in Davos, Switzerland at the World Economic Forum with three smiling new friends from the four corners of the earth.

At a moments notice thousands of Israeli volunteers, Jewish and Arab, orthodox and secular, drop whatever they are doing and rush to the aid of anyone, and I mean ANYONE, who is in need of emergency medical attention.
