programs

The Sar-El programs offer prospective volunteers an opportunity to live and work on IDF bases to gain an insider view of Israel. Volunteers work alongside soldiers, base employees, and other volunteers, performing non-combat support duties such as packing medical supplies, checking and repairing machinery and equipment; as well as cleaning, painting, and maintaining bases.

We include cultural events, lectures and activities each evening while volunteers are on the base. Thursday afternoon through Sunday mornings are spent off the base. You can travel in Israel or visit with friends and/or relatives.

We offer 1, 2 and 3-week programs that may be extended up to 6-weeks with prior permission.
