Sar-El volunteers contribute to the security of the State of Israel by assisting on IDF bases in a logistical support role.
Ashkelon Sar-El volunteers take on routine logistical support tasks normally assigned to active duty soldiers and reservists. Our volunteers are highly flexible, serving everywhere they are needed around the country. In addition to helping the IDF, the Sar-El program is a morale booster and motivator for the soldiers. At the same time, volunteers learn about, and gain appreciation for what our soldiers are experiencing.
Since its inception, the Sar-El volunteer project has brought in over 160,000 volunteers, providing broad logistical support to the IDF throughout the country. While Sar-El runs different programs for Olim, the Ashkelon Sar-El volunteers work in the one-day programs. We are picked up and taken to a base where we usually package items such as food or medical kits for soldiers.
Volunteers are fed lunch and returned to Ashkelon around 7:00 PM.
