Supporting wounded IDF soldiers through one-on-one English tutoring
Volunteer Application Volunteer FAQ englishforheroes@gmail.comHi, we’re Holly Harris and Leah Karp.
English for Heroes began with a simple goal: to support wounded IDF soldiers in a way that is practical, meaningful, and lasting. Over the past year and a half, we’ve had the privilege of supporting nearly 200 IDF Heroes, each paired with a native English-speaking volunteer for personalized, one-on-one English tutoring.
As a program created specifically for wounded soldiers, our hope is that the need for this support will one day lessen. In the meantime, we’re incredibly grateful that so many people are eager to volunteer. At times, this means we have more volunteers than current tutoring needs.
Not every application will lead to a match, but if and when a suitable opportunity arises, we’ll reach out directly — there’s no need to follow up.
Your willingness to help is deeply appreciated, and every volunteer who steps forward plays a part in making this initiative possible.
