United Hatzalah: Volunteers and Innovation Saving Lives

Another video today for people to think about. This is a presentation by a man who created United Hatzalah in Israel: an organization of volunteers who put ambulances on motorcycles to decrease response time and provide support for critical patients while the full-size ambulance fights it's way through traffic. Over the years, his organization has grown to thousands of volunteers in several countries and has become a vehicle for knitting together Jews, Arabs, and Christians.
Volunteers do not need to be second-fiddle to professional responders. Volunteers concentrating on what they do best can be the best within their mission. I don't believe there is any point in being any less.
