A Day in the Life of Standing Together Volunteers

Israel @ War - Standing Together on the Front Lines

May 2025. Painful to say that the war continues and that we still have hostages in Hamas captivity. Since the beginning of the Iron Swords war, Standing Together has been actively involved  in showing support and love for  IDF soldiers, driving as close as possible to the front lines to offer IDF soldiers delicious snacks and drinks, hotdogs, soups, waffles and more. Sometimes serving more than 2000 soldiers in a day! Standing Together has given out Tzizit, warm jackets, sweatshirts, gloves, scarves and more to IDF soldiers. Standing Together has brought flowers to their wives,  recruited volunteers to help IDF reserve soldiers with their Yom Ha’Atzmaut celebration, and a special event that the soldiers planned for their wives and children.

The Standing Together Hospitality Truck in memory of  Ari Fuld and Yehoshua Friedberg HY”D has been busy and now mid 2025, we are making the necessary repairs so that Standing Together volunteers can go out again as IDF soldiers answer the newest call up.  Standing Together volunteers plan to travel to different army units. These trips are from dawn past dusk. We travel late into the night. Sometimes serving more than 2000 soldiers in a day. Standing Together loves and appreciates the IDF! Join us and Show your support.

Throughout 2024 – Standing Together did not rest for a minute. Our wonderful IDF are on the frontlines, and we are supporting them as much as we can. To catch up on our activities – check out 2024 – our year in review.
