Thanks to the guidance and counsel of the National Officers and Directors of American Friends of Magen David Adom (AFMDA), the organization has grown to be the world’s largest provider of funds and support for Magen David Adom in Israel (MDA).

The leadership was responsible for construction and equipping of the MDA National Blood Services Center and is now seeking to expand it to meet Israel’s urgent ongoing needs.
