The Hebrew Academy of Marlboro will host a special ceremony on Feb. 28 to dedicate a life-saving emergency vehicle on behalf of the community to United Hatzalah of Israel.
The vehicle, an ambucycle (motorcycle-ambulance), is the organization’s flagship vehicle used by emergency medical service (EMS) first responders in Israel and enables responders to arrive at the scenes of medical emergencies quickly and safely, according to a press release.
The donation is being made by the Reich family. Dan Reich, a representative of the family, is a first responder and knows firsthand the value of a quick response to medical emergencies, according to the press release.
During the dedication ceremony, students from the school will hold a special presentation followed by a short talk about United Hatzalah of Israel’s activities by Gavy Friedson, the organization’s Director of International Emergency Management and Global Ambassador.
