Same as every year, a moment before Passover is upon us, MDA made sure to sell the organization's Chametz, as Jewish Law commands.

On March 16, MDA officials headed by MDA Director General Eli Bin, met with the Chief Rabbi of Jerusalem, Harishon Letzion Rabbi Amar in his chamber in Jerusalem and authorized the honorable Rabbi to sell to a non-Jew the organization's Chametz in light of the upcoming holiday, together with the Chametz of other citizens and organizations.

During the meeting, Rabbi Amar was interested in preparations for the holiday in MDA, and was very interested in the Magen David Adom activity during the Corona and in the organization's extensive vaccination campaign, the Rabbi inquired about the preparations at the various stations of the organization prior to the Pesach holiday and discussed the question of the kashrut of Pesach medicines and the check of Chametz in the rescue vehicles and MDA stations before the holiday. The Rabbi added that the Kimcha de Pascha is a project of kindness and benevolence that brings redemption closer .After the sale of the Chametz, the rabbi blessed the MDA director for all his activity throughout the year and also blessed all the MDA workers and volunteers who will be able to deal only with good things.

MDA teams ensure full preservation of Kosher for Passover in all stations in order to enable work in full cooperation within the organization with all sectors of Israeli society- religious and secular, side by side, even during the holiday.
