The program costs 9000 NIS per participant including - Application fees - Preparation steps 1 & 2 - Personal accompaniment during the first year of the military service including Shabbatons & more The program fees are due by August 1st 2021. We will ask for part of the fees to be paid before the program starts, as a committment payment. Housing and food: Participants will be asked to pay 5000 NIS for the whole preparation period. These payments can be made using the absorbtion basket (sal klita) that all immigrants receive After the draft, the army will be paying for housing and food. Insurrance: Participants who don't have National insurance yet (Bituach leumi) will have to pay and arrange their own travel insurance for the first month of Maslul Nitzan. (This is not part of the program fees). As soon as the National insurance starts, participants won't need to pay for private travel insurance, but until then, it is at the participants' charge.

If you are between 18 and 22 by August 2021 you are good to go!

For women: Between 18-20 you will have to serve a minimum of two years. If you are 20-21, 1 year is mandatory but for the sake of having meaningful roles you might want to serve 1,6 or 2 years. For men: If you’re 18-21, you will have to serve 3 years, if you are 21-22 you will have to serve 2,5 years. Just note that there can be changes in legislations at any time.

First you need to fill out the form on the "Register" part of our website. After that, Shanna, the program coordinator will be in touch with you to schedule an interview where she will answer all your questions about Maslul Nitzan and get to know you.

The only requirement is to be in a "closed base", which means that you don't have a role during the day and go home every night but that you will serve during the week and go home during the week-ends. Except for this, all roles are open and we will make eveything in our power to guide you and help you get the most interesting role for you!

Yes, you need to be Israeli by August 1st 2021. The reason is simple: we see Maslul Nitzan as the first steps for young adults who want Israel to be their home and our approach is very clearly to help Olim and Olot to integrate into their new society.

For the first three months of the program, we will be running activities in Hebrew (easy level with translations to English if needed) you will only need a very basic level of Hebrew. Working in the kibbutz, spending time with your host family and having ulpan will help practice and improve your Hebrew. Our staff is international and if you need to speak with someone in English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, German or Russian there will be no problem at all!

All levels are welcomed! We are partnering with the innovative Ulpan Integraliah to run personnalized and tailor-made ulpan classes for our participants. If you are a beginner, no worries, we will get you to feel comfortable speaking Hebrew, and you will then join the Michve Alon base which specializes in running intensive Ulpan courses for Olim Chadashim and prepare you to your army service.

OF COURSE NOT! We wanted to offer a meaningful process to our members deciding to make aliyah and joining the IDF, but we want this experience to be shared by as many as possible! If you are looking for a program which focuses on building a united group of peers, learning and challenging yourself through your army service and want to experience Kibbutz life: MASLUL NITZAN IS FOR YOU!

For the first 4 months + one year from the first day as a soldier you are committing to living in Kibbutz Sarid. After that, you can decide to move out eventhough we would love for you to stay with your group until you get released at the end of your service. The amazingly central location of the kibbutz makes it really easy to go to Tel Aviv or Jerusalem and still enjoy the dreamy Kibbutz life. In case you want to break the contract and leave before the first year of your service ends, the army will continue paying rent to Kibbutz Sarid and you will have to pay your new rent using your own money. We hope Sarid will feel like your home and you will want to stay as long as possible!

We have a long experience of guiding new immigrants on their first steps in Israel. We believe that group processes are the way to go, to feel supported and to have a meaningful experience with peers to share the everyday life with. We see your army service as a valuable part of your integration into Israeli society and therefore it is essential to go through a learning and debriefing process. We offer an in-depth learning experience, for you to be able to reflect and process your new life as a soldier, question and challenge yourself throughout your service and get to know what Israel is really about from within.

It is a requirement to send us your medical records before you get accepted. There is no need to hide or lie about pre-existing conditions because we want to support you and help you get the best and most interesting roles in the army, therefore we need to be aware of any pre-existing condition and medication/treatment you currently take.

Hashomer Hatzair was created in 1913 in Europe and has been sending groups of young adults to Israel even before the establishment of the State, to build the country, live on Kibbutzim and defend the country when needed. For too many years we have been sitting off to the side, when we should have been taking a stand. The world movement of Hashomer Hatzair rarely dealt with the issue of drafting to the IDF as our bogrim*ot that did choose to make Aliyah usually went to kibbutzim and through that moved from the world movement to the Kibbutz movement or to the Israeli movement others did it as individuals. Today our Olot*im are all alone as there is no Kibbutz to accept them. In our daily work we try to promote the movement and all of its members by evaluating the reality and analyzing it through Hashomer Hatzair's ideological prism. Hashomer Hatzair takes responsibility over the present and future of Israel, we look critically on the situation: that includes striving to end the conflict, promoting peace while ensuring equal rights for all people in Israel and realizing that Israel needs protection and without the IDF there is no future to Israel. We believe that with a strong support system, close counseling and a peer group (Kvutza) living on a Kibbutz, our participants will get the best possible structure to critically look at their new lives and be actors of change.
