Serving in the Army

With the full support of the IDF, and in cooperation with the Friends of the IDF (FIDF), the Nefesh B’Nefesh Lone Soldiers Program was established to assist and support the brave young men and women who choose to serve in the IDF, regardless of their country of origin. The Lone Soldiers Program acts as the address for every Lone Soldier in Israel before, during, and after their service in the IDF. We provide resources, support and guidance for a successful IDF service and acclimation to life in Israel. Our team consists of knowledgeable and experienced advisors with influence with the government, including an employee who sits within the IDF.

Volunteering with Sherut Leumi

In cooperation with the various Israeli Sherut Leumi organizations, Ori was created to provide a community and support system for the young women who have decided to commit to a year of national service in Israel. Through Nefesh B’Nefesh, Ori provides Lone Bnot Sherut with the guidance, support and assistance they need so they can experience a successful and meaningful Sherut Leumi. We are here for them every step of the way as their advocate, guide, advisor and mentor. We help the Bnot Sherut adjust and acclimate to their national service and apartments, place them with families for Shabbatot, create a sense of community by hosting social events, and provide them with bureaucratic assistance and vital information as they navigate their new life in Israel. We are also here to guide them towards the next stage in life after Sherut such as higher education in Israel.
