Israeli Emergency Medical Fund

Donation protected
My name is Sam Rattner. I am Jewish. My grandfather was the President of the Board of Jewish Education in Chicago. He was on the Board for over 40 years.

My good friend, Justin Kriezelman, is an adult and pediatric emergency medicine physician for hospitals all around America. He started his medical training in Tel Aviv and has many friends and colleagues that are currently in Israel entrenched in this conflict.

Some of our best friends’ families live in Israel and are constantly under direct threat of rocket fire. Innocent women and children are being slaughtered by terrorists. The injuries of those fighting for their lives are unimaginable.

This is the largest attack on the Jewish people since the Holocaust.

Childhood friends. College friends. Business colleagues. Investors. Lawyers. Everyone is texting one another looking for a way to help alleviate suffering - so let's do it. All money donated is being wired directly to the bank accounts of emergency medical facilities for:
  • Medical supplies
  • Emergency equipment
  • Emergency medical transportation
  • Emergency surgeries

Funds go to:
  • Medical facilities being managed by volunteers in rural areas of Israel
  • United Hatzalah
  • Magen David Adom

Justin and I are in communication with all recipients. We will clear the account every morning at 6am to provide resources as quickly as possible.

We are starting things off with $10,000.
