FIDF’s construction projects give the young men and women of the IDF a taste of “home away from home” while they are in service. FIDF aims to create environments in which soldiers can relax, connect with each other, stay in shape, commemorate and celebrate special days, and simply feel like themselves again outside of uniform. Projects range from individual structures to comprehensive well-being complexes, and include recreation and sports centers, cultural and educational facilities, synagogues, memorial rooms, auditoriums, and soldiers’ homes.
