Overview

Founded in May 2007, Brothers for Life (BFL) is a non-profit organization created and run by injured Israeli combat soldiers whose mission is to empower recently injured soldiers to reclaim their lives, fulfill their dreams, and continue to serve and inspire the Jewish nation. Operating behind a model where recovered soldiers make significant differences in each other’s lives, members come from Eilat to the Golan Heights, and from every walk of life and observance. They’re bonded by their shared injuries, their desire to heal, and their passion to help other injured soldiers like themselves.

The nonprofit’s vision is that every wounded combat soldier receives the care and support needed to ensure his return to a fulfilling and contributive life. It's how injured soldiers help newly injured soldiers reclaim their lives.
