100 Bullet Proof Vests Needed for the IDF, Please Help!

For budgetary and logistical reasons,  some of the brave soldiers of the IDF are lacking proper or optimal safety equipment. Sadly, the casualties are far too high already, and we want to do all that we can to provide protection that could avoid further loss of life R'L.
We have been in direct contact with Yoni, the son of Rabbi & Mrs. Oberstein of the Baltimore community, who is actively in service in Gaza. His answer to the offers for help from overseas  was clear, they need more bullet proof vests.
Yoni is currently in service as a member of the Chevra Kadisha, and along with his colleagues has the heartbreaking and dangerous task of entering hostile territory to retrieve and bring to burial any of our fallen brethren. Due to lacking resources, they, and many others, operate without bullet proof vests.
In coordination with commanding officers on the ground, we wish to raise funds to provide as many bullet proof vests as we can to the soldiers engaged in this dangerous and conflict.
Each vest costs approximately $1,534.00, and they are needed immediately. Please contribute generously. We are one people, and these are our brothers.
 
All funds collected will be pooled as one and forwarded to secure and deliver the protective equipment as quickly as possible.
