OUR MISSION

To ensure that no lone soldier in the IDF feels alone or unsupported during their military service.

BEIT ELI

IT IS OUR DUTY TO ENSURE THEY HAVE A SAFE HAVEN TO RETURN TO, A PLACE WHERE THEY CAN FIND COMFORT, COMPANIONSHIP, AND CARE.

In the heart of Israel, a beacon of hope and comfort stands tall. Bayit Lachayal – Beit Eli, a home away from home for lone soldiers serving in the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), is more than just a building. It is a testament to the spirit of camaraderie, resilience, and sacrifice that defines the IDF.

Our organization was born out of a deep-seated desire to support the brave men and women who leave their homes and families to protect the State of Israel. These lone soldiers, hailing from various corners of the world, carry the weight of their mission with unwavering dedication. We believe it is our duty to ensure they have a safe haven to return to, a place where they can find comfort, companionship, and care.

IN ♥-ING MEMORY

BEIT ELI IS NAMED IN MEMORY OF ELI KAY, A LONE SOLDIER WHO MADE THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE FOR THE COUNTRY HE LOVED.

WE INVITE YOU TO LEARN MORE ABOUT OUR MISSION AND THE STORY OF ELI KAY, A TRUE HERO WHOSE SPIRIT CONTINUES TO GUIDE OUR WORK.

JOIN US IN OUR EFFORTS TO PROVIDE A HOME FOR THOSE WHO HAVE LEFT THEIRS TO PROTECT OURS. TOGETHER, WE CAN ENSURE THAT EVERY LONE SOLDIER IN THE IDF FEELS VALUED, SUPPORTED, AND LOVED.

Bayit Lachayal – Beit Eli is named in memory of Eli Kay, a lone soldier who made the ultimate sacrifice for the country he loved. Eli, originally from South Africa, was a beacon of light, always bringing warmth and positivity to every place he went. He was tragically killed in a terror attack in Jerusalem in November 2021. His legacy of love for Israel and its people continues to inspire us every day.

Our home, located in central Israel, is more than just a place to rest. It is a community where lone soldiers can find a sense of belonging. We provide a range of services to meet their needs, from meals and accommodation to social events and emotional support. Our goal is to ensure that while they may be far from their families, they never feel alone.
