WELCOME TO THE MICHAEL LEVIN BASE

Our goal is to not only support lone soldiers, but also lone b’nei sheirut (young men and women carrying out national service, ‘Sheirut Leumi’) from both Israel and abroad. We aim to provide practical and emotional support for these young adults, as well as assistance to their families throughout the world.
