IDF Says Financial Guidance Program Has Reached 600 Soldiers

About 600 soldiers facing financial difficulty have received personalized guidance since the program began in March, the IDF said Friday. The Bank of Israel, the Class Actions Fund and the IDF Manpower Directorate are leading the initiative, with NIS 7.2 million allocated to support about 4,500 soldiers over three years. Pitchon Lev and RiseUp, alongside HaTashtit and Citizen Impact, provide help with budgeting, income and expenses, financial rights and digital tools. Officials said the program may later expand to career NCOs and officers.
