September 8, 2024, American Friends of Rambam hosted its kick-off event in Las Vegas with the lecture series Saving Lives & Healing Hearts. Staunch allies of Israel and active community members, Carrie and Bob Zeidman, hosted the program and reception. “The Zeidmans created a beautiful backdrop for new friends and supporters to come together and to hear about Rambam Medical Center’s achievements during Swords of Iron,” shared Sari Arshadnia, director of the Western Region.

A presentation about Rambam’s frontline heroes and its Fortified Underground Emergency Hospital – the largest of its kind in the world, aroused generous support for Rambam.

The organization is grateful to the Zeidmans and fellow guests for helping American Friends of Rambam create a launching pad for future awareness building and fundraising activities.
