The terrorist attacks on Israel on Saturday, October 7 marked the deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust. We cannot let this tragic loss of life pass without taking meaningful action. As a proudly Jewish owned and operated health network, CareOne, Ascend, and its partners are joining hands to organize a charter flight this week to transport both reservists and donate to supplies to Israel.

Let us remember the words of Rabbi Jonathan Sacks: “Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become irrelevant. Wherever men or women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must — at the moment — become the center of the universe.”
