Lone Soldiers Receive Support From Federation

As the High Holidays approach, it’s important that lone soldiers feel supported during their IDF service. Through WINGS, a program of our overseas partner, The Jewish Agency for Israel, Federation helps these young olim (immigrants) who have bravely left their homes without their families to make aliyah and take an active role in securing a strong Israel. Nearly 1,000 lone soldiers receive emotional and physical assistance, such as care packages, hospital visits, aid for visiting family and more.
