Help Israel's Future Leaders on Their Journey - Become a Monthly Supporter!

"Lone Soldiers don't just aim to serve—they step up to lead, excel, innovate, inspire, and overcome. Lone Soldiers are the best and brightest of Jewish and Western society, they can overcome any challenge, excel in any team, and become industry leaders. All these young heroes need from us is help to even the playing field. We are here to help make sure they are running their race from the same starting line as everyone else."
- Sergeant Major (Res.) Menachem I., LSEF Co-Founder and CEO.

"Pre-draft and Veteran Lone Soldiers possess extraordinary ambition, resilience, drive and capacity to contribute to the Land of Israel,  Jewish communities, and Western Society. These young men and women are the ones who answered the call to protect the basic freedoms and values we take for granted. Their challenges start before they don the uniform, and continue long after they've been released. As former lone soldiers ourselves, we lived and continue to experience their struggle. At the Lone Soldier Empowerment Foundation, we aim to support and empower our community each and every day, through all of life's stages and challenges."
- Sergeant Major (Res.) J., LSEF Co-Founder and CEO

Shevet Lochamim Military-Prep Program for Olim and Lone Soldiers: Excellence through Empowerment.
   

Operating under the Lone Soldier Empowerment Foundation (LSEF, RA 580674547) since 2014, Shevet Lochamim ("Tribe of Warriors") is our flagship free Pre-Military Preparation program with over 250 active participants per year and over 1500 alumni who have succesfully drafted and served in the IDFs toughest units. Shevet Lochamim is built "For Lone Soldiers, By Lone Soldiers," and prepares future Lone Soldiers and Olim across our Jerusalem (Tzevet Mikey) and Tel Aviv/Herzeliya (Tsevet Lohamim) branches.

Your recurring support funds our ecosystem of programs designed to empower and maximize their latent potential!

• Tzevet Mikey in Jerusalem and Tsevet Lohamim in Tel Aviv - The Largest Lone Soldier Pre-Army program in Israel: High-caliber physical, cultural, linguistic, social, and mental conditioning to prepare future Lone Soldiers for elite IDF units, command positions, or the everyday challenges of drafting into the IDF. The primary goal of the program is to maximize the potential of each individual, regardless of their background or financial means.
• Boxing Therapy: Emotional and Mental Support - Unique in Israel, we provide free pre-draft and post-army mental health services through our partners at Boxing Therapy, building psychological fortitude and stress regulation before facing high-pressure service, and after their release.
• Ulpan Yehoshua: Spoken Language Mastery - Practical Hebrew fluency designed for social communication and leadership. The connections built during military service will carry over into their future lives and jobs. Includes private Hebrew lessons for outstanding students or those who need the extra help.
• Garin Rose: Female Leadership Network - Fostering community, shared experience, and strong peer networks through a network of female combat veterans and pre-draftees. Named in memory of Rose Lubin z"l.
• Alumni Leadership Pipeline: A self-sustaining cycle where veteran Lone Soldiers return as volunteer mentors to coach the next generation of leaders, and receive student grants, financial support, access to professional networks, and more.
• Emergency Tzedaka Fund: Supporting our most worthy - Many pre-army and released lone soldiers don't have the financial support of their families, leading to sticky situations or tough financial times for otherwsie incredibly capable and driven people. We are here to help support our brothers and sisters in arms, and make sure that no one sleeps on the street, goes hungry, or doesn't have the money to buy shoes or clothing.  
• Proffessional and Experienced Pre-Draft Advice: Assitance with beuracracy and coordination between NGOs to maximize benefits and smooth the process of drafting and release.
