A nation-wide effort to provide 50 ambulances as a gift to Israel on the state’s 15th anniversary was announced today by the American Red Mogen Dovid for Israel.
Congressman Emanuel Celler, national chairman, said that each ambulance would bear the name of the donor or the donor’s community “each one a demonstration of our love for Israel, of our Joy on its birthday.”
