Is there a secular version of hatzoloh whose members will drop everything at any time to run save a life of another human being while not receiving any compensation?

yup, any local ambulance corp like in monsey rvac (tamapo valley ambulance corps0 and spring hill. none receive compensation, they all volunteer.

anyway to get back to the topic, i get where gittys coming from and you all trying to convince her of the beauty when she doesnt see it doesnt do anything just makes her feel like you dont get it cause you dont, and you cant cause you werent in that position its just gona make her feel like you dont get her. as ive said before, im back on the derech but i still dont see the beauty of it no matter how hard i try. charlie brown pointed out that the jewish community does a ton of chesed which is very true but theres still so many scandals and undercover dirt going on that i see so clearly and that the community turns a blind eye to that turns me and other kids off. also every time ive gotten close to a frum person who tried to convince me how wondeful being frum is and so on and so forth when they finally open up to me, every single one has told me their life problems and how really they dislike being frum and their whole messed up story that has made me think no one really likes it just isnt open like me
