PROGRAM
Every ambulance dispatched, every drop of blood collected, every soldier’s life saved on the battlefield, every newborn nourished—this is the work of Magen David Adom. We respond to crises, heal the wounded, and sustain life at every stage. Through your generosity, we deliver hope, care, and strength to the people of Israel when they need it most.
Special Guest: Jonathan Conricus
Jonathan Conricus is a senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and the founder of Conricus Communications. He recently retired as an IDF lieutenant colonel after serving in the IDF for 24 years in a variety of roles including combat commander in Lebanon and the Gaza Strip, military diplomat, foreign relations expert, and international spokesperson. He was the first IDF officer to be seconded to the UN in New York, where he provided strategic analysis for UN peacekeeping.
A proud Zionist and a strong believer in the crucial bond between the State of Israel and the Diaspora, he has dedicated his professional life to representing and defending the State of Israel. Conricus is a native speaker of Hebrew, English, and Swedish.
