The Maccabi Tel Aviv Football Club Foundation took advantage of the 5th night of Hanukah to hold a special holiday gathering with the lone soldiers as part of the club’s partnership with the Michael Levin Lone Soldier Center.
Dozens of lone soldiers came to Beit Jabotinsky in Tel Aviv and enjoyed a festive meal thanks to club sponsor Pizza Prego as the candles were lit and everyone enjoyed a spirited evening.
The Lone Soldier Center in Memory of Michael Levin was established by a group of former lone soldiers who were aware of the challenges and struggles faced by those lone soldiers serving in the IDF.
Foundation Goals for the upcoming season is to provide support for the lone soldiers while in the army through the Maccabi fans and sponsors and accompany the lone soldiers following their service through mentoring programs, academic studies and employment opportunities.
