The Warm Corner Project
Yashar LaChayal has opened 31 Warm Corners in different communities throughout Israel, with more on the way!
A Warm Corner is a small space set aside at the entrance of a community within range of IDF patrols, which is stocked with food and drinks for the benefit of combat soldiers in the area.
The Warm Corners have been an amazing success, one which Yashar LaChayal is very proud of, and we plan on building more!
Why a Warm Corner?
• To show support for the brave men and women defending Jewish communities in far-flung areas.
•A community with a Warm Corner in place will draw soldiers to the area, giving residents a greater feeling of security.
• Additionally, soldiers provided with the food and beverages (especially coffee!) that a Warm Corner has to offer them (all free of charge, of course) will return to their patrol routes rested and refreshed. Whether it is soup and a hot drink in the cold winter, or soda and ice cream in the summer, soldiers in the area know that they can always stop by for a well-deserved break!
