Thank You to Our Volunteers at the Supply Drive for Israel

Thank you to all of our volunteers who contributed their time and energy to a worthwhile mitzvah for the Supply Drive for Israel. We received hundreds of packages and had 100+ volunteers from the Temple Emanu-El community join us to pack an impressive 842 items to be sent to Israel’s front lines.

For our third drive, Temple Emanu-El partnered with BC Lev Echad, a grassroots organization comprised of volunteers within the Bergen County, New Jersey Jewish community. Formed after the October 7 attacks, the organization coordinates with local, national and international suppliers and channels to collect crucial items for soldiers in the Israeli Defense Forces and for displaced families. The organization operates entirely on donations.
