No lone soldier is left.

For the donations of the Center for Lone Soldiers without a Family Home Front, come and help

. Against all odds, they chose to enlist in the IDF.

The program supports them and accompanies them from pre-conscription, throughout military service to five years from release, to help them integrate into society.

Recently, the chain decided to pamper the soldiers again and transfer design details to all nine of the association's homes and to the three centers such as sofas, dining areas, lighting, carpets, accessories and more.

"The club needed to be upgraded because the equipment was old, so we were very happy to upgrade," says Roni Weinberg, coordinator of lone soldiers in the southern region.

"Soldiers have fun entering such an aesthetic and beautiful place."

Naftali Kandyati, director of housing for lone soldiers in the Jerusalem area, explains: "The apartment was in really bad condition. I personally was in the market when I first entered the apartment, I did not understand how they live in such a situation. The furniture really improved the situation and brought a home atmosphere to Israeli lone soldiers. "They were right in the market from this incredible contribution. I heard responses like, 'Now I feel at home' and 'I want to continue living here even after the service.'"

It is important to know that the IDF provides individual soldiers with a small budget for renting an apartment, which does not cover expenses for furniture. The soldier in the service and certainly all the discharged must take care of furnishing the apartment they rent and even provide basic products, such as a stove and refrigerator. For themselves to purchase these products, especially during the time of the Corona, where many lone and discharged soldiers found themselves unemployed,

The furniture donated in recent months has been transferred to the association's many homes, in Jerusalem and in the central region, and currently serves 100 lone Israeli soldiers.

In addition, furniture was donated to the soldiers' clubs in Jerusalem, Beer Sheva and Tel Aviv, and thousands of soldiers benefit from it.

"We wrote to them what was missing in each house and they led and assembled everything with great love, like an enveloping family. We have no words to describe the intensity of our excitement and gratitude. Thanks to them our soldiers feel so at home, a feeling many of them have almost never experienced," says Drorit Nitzani. , Community Relations Manager and donors of the Family Backless Program.

"Every year we are re-excited and filled with satisfaction from the happiness of those lone Israeli soldiers who did not get to enjoy new furniture," says Ofer Eitani, the chain's owners.

"There is no better feeling than giving. The thought that the discharged soldiers enjoy it fills me with a lot of satisfaction. My heart goes out to these people. They deserve everything, they did not give up recruitment despite the great difficulty involved," he continues.

Also in the previous year, in addition to donating furniture and financial donations, Beitili conducted an internal organizational activity for its employees where toiletries, toiletries and cleaning products were collected in offices and transferred to the three clubs across the country for the benefit of the soldiers.

Any male or female soldier could take products to their homes and enjoy the products collected.

"Such initiatives are welcome. The very knowledge that clubs have closets full of products, that every soldier can take the commodity they need, gives them a sense of real home," says the program's director, Liora Rubinstein.
