Pre-Military Preparatory Programs Shaping Israel’s Leaders

Brothers and Sisters for Israel is committed to developing a new generation of responsible leaders dedicated to advancing the democratic values of Israeli society. So we are collaborating with the leadership-building Hechalutz Movement which operates pre-military preparatory programs and gap-year services offering high school graduates a unique educational framework.

The program, which combines studies, preparation for military service, and meaningful social activity, is designed to infuse the young leaders with a deep understanding of Zionism, liberal democracy, and social justice, while fostering a strong connection to their communities through social action. Participants engage in a comprehensive curriculum that combines academic studies, preparation for military service, and meaningful community involvement. The program includes team-building activities, volunteer work in communities impacted by the war, and educational tours. It is currently running in several locations throughout Israel.

Now, more than ever, when the country is experiencing political, social, moral and economic crisis, this framework addresses the critical need for young, responsible leadership, nurturing graduates who will play key roles in the IDF and guide Israeli society toward a brighter future.
