United Hatzalah of Israel honored the Pargh Family of Nashville, Tennessee, at the organization's Miami Gala, in recognition of their enduring generosity, civic leadership, and steadfast commitment to the people of Israel. The Parghs were presented with the Leight Legacy Heroes Award by Dr. Lynn and Paul Leight. The Leight Legacy Heroes is United Hatzalah’s kids and teen philanthropy initiative.
“Honoring the Pargh Family is both fitting and deeply meaningful,” said Founder and President of United Hatzalah Eli Beer. “Their impact on the Jewish community is massive, and what they have done for United Hatzalah is incredible.”
The Pargh Family was honored alongside other distinguished guests, including Former Mossad Director Yossi Cohen, Former U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, philanthropists Barry and Missy Skolnick, and recently released Israeli hostage Bar Kuperstein. In front of 1,200 people, Bar announced that he is going to become a United Hatzalah volunteer EMT. Last night, United Hatzalah raised $120,000 for Bar and his family, to help with their medical and living expenses.
