Racheli Platt Raises Funds for the Red Bag Of Courage Mitzvah Project for Her Bat Mitzvah
"I chose this project because I know how important the Red Cross is in America and my rabbi, Michael Resnick of Temple Emanu-el of Palm Beach, told me about Magen David Adom, the "Red Cross" in Israel. I like to help people and thought it would be a great idea if I could raise money for MDA. I have also figured out in life you must give back not only take in. At my bat mitzvah, I recognized this organization and told everyone about it. My family and friends donated to the cause and as a result I received $3,000 and donated it to AFMDA. I hope they use this money well and save many many more lives."

Before the event, Leslie , Kenny, Gris, Tyler, Maria Teresa, George and Sarah Rudes dedicated an ambulance, which on May 31 was a part of the delivery of twin girls in Ashdodi. This is the 94th ambulance donated by the community of St. Andrews, which is more than any other community in the world!
