BCC Israel Action Team and Opportunities to Support Israel
Our hearts break for the Israeli people. Join us in action by sending letters, making donations and using facts to educate people about the truth of this war.
Please use the attached templates for letter writing to elected officials and educators. Information is also included for your children to write letters and offer support to kids in Israel. A fact sheet about Hamas is attached as well to use in educating people about this terrorist organization. The letter templates need to be downloaded before any edits can be made.
You may wish to consider supporting the people of Israel and the Israel Defense Forces by contributing to these well-known charitable organizations:
Shannah Saul, the daughter of one of our members has put together a list of worthwhile medium to large organizations that need your donations. We suggest that everyone post and share these resources to others as well.
We, as a congregation, are also ‘adopting’ a congregant’s Israeli family member, Yoad, to help us deliver the greatest impact on the ground to those in need immediately. Refer to QR codes below to donate to Yoad.
