BC Lev Echad
Supports Israel
BC Lev Echad Supports Israel & the IDF is a grassroots operation comprised of volunteers from the Bergen County Jewish community, with satellite chapters in Miami and Los Angeles. After the October 7th attacks in Israel, we came together to coordinate with local, national, and international suppliers and channels, corral supplies needed by the IDF and displaced families, and ship them to Israel. We run entirely on donations and work with other local organization to ensure as much humanitarian relief as possible gets to our brothers and sisters in Israel.
About
BC Lev Echad
The October 7th Hamas attacks on Israel will go down as one of the darkest days in modern Israeli history.
The display of terror and inhumanity has seared an indelible mark on the collective consciousness of younger Jews, for whom the Holocaust and Yom Kippur War were only historical concepts contemplated in retrospect. Inspired to immediate action, a group of Bergen County volunteers quickly banded together to corral supplies needed by the IDF and civilians, pack them, and ship them to Israel. Since October 8th, this core group has undertaken a powerful grassroots campaign to recruit hundreds of volunteers of all ages, rent a local warehouse, raise hundreds of thousands of dollars, and coordinate international efforts—determinedly barreling through red tape and political minutia—to pack and ship 7,500+ duffel bags and over 100 tons of palleted cargo of essential supplies needed by IDF soldiers defending Israel.
Calling themselves Bergen County (BC) Lev Echad, they’re run by a dedicated group of individuals who forsake personal and professional responsibilities to fuel these powerful efforts. But as the war in Israel continues and soldiers are in dire need of even basic supplies, they need more support from the global Jewish community and beyond to continue their sacred work.

Our Team
We're Jewish community members in our 30s, 40s and beyond. We're parents, professionals, and busy with the numerous demands that come with those roles and with contemporary Jewish communal life. But we know there's nothing more important or sacred than strengthening our homeland and ensuring the Jewish future. If not now, when? And if not us, then who? Join us.
Our Network
We believe in the importance of supporting the IDF in their mission to protect Israel and its people. We work closely with the IDF, airlines, and customs to identify their needs and provide assistance wherever we can.
