The Lone Soldier Center in memory of Michael Levin describes itself as "The largest and oldest non-profit organization in Israel dedicated to supporting lone soldiers from the moment they receive their conscription order through to five years after their discharge". It says it supports "around 3,500 lone soldiers … including approximately 2,000 who are currently serving in the IDF", and that Michael Levin enlisted in the Paratroopers in 2004.[1]
Link to IDF service
The centre supports soldiers from conscription through service and after discharge.[1] The Israel Defense Forces treats as "lone soldiers" those serving without family support in Israel, for example soldiers whose parents live abroad, who are estranged from their parents or who are orphaned, and gives them extra rights such as a monthly stipend.[2] See Lone soldiers.
UK funding
No UK charity payment to this centre was found in the accounts reviewed. It should not be confused with the "Lone Soldier Centre" named in the accounts of the Jerusalem Foundation in the UK; see Lone Soldier Centre.
