Convenor, Philip Jacobson,
deals with his position as he
does with both his business
and philanthropic activities –
efficiently and quietly. This big
hearted, avid art and culture
lover is a generous, kind and
charitable family man who
prefers to stay in the shadows
while he gets onwith the job at
hand. A true Baal Chessed.
Mark Uria
I was originally asked by Clive
Breger to join the fundraising
team and I saw this as an
opportunity to do some extra
c o mm u n i t y w o r k . To
fundraise for Hatzolah has
now become a privilege. I
stand in awe of the humility
and dedication of the people
involved in the organisation.
When I see the selfless
commitment and genuine
care of the dispatchers and responders (the vast majority on a
voluntary basis), whether it be for a life-saving emergency or to
help an elderly person living alone to get out the bath, I feel
very grateful tobe part of this team.
I am also thankful to our community for their enormous
generosity in sustaining Hatzolah and recognising the need for
the most advanced emergency medical care. I also pay tribute
to Phillip Jacobson for the tremendous work that he has done
in keeping Hatzolah on the road for so many years before Mark
[
Uria] and I joined his effort.
WISH LIST
In 1941 Winston Churchill, in
a plea to the American
President FD Roosevelt,
uttered the famous words,
“
Give us the tools so that we
can do the job”. His plea was
for financial assistance at a
time where the free world
was on the brink of collapse.
It was a time that demanded
“
deeds and not words”.
As a fundraiser for Hatzolah,
these words ring so true. Our
community and our greater
community benefit so greatly from the deeds and the “job” that
the Hatzolah teamdoes. The commitment and the passion of all
of our staff and our volunteers is something that we can be so
proud of. They are in the business of saving lives and giving us all
the comfort that, G-d forbid something goes wrong, we have
themto call and to rely on.
My job and indeed all of ours is to “give them the tools” so that
they cando this job.
I thank everyone for their support, no matter the magnitude, as
without thiswe simply couldnot do the deeds.
