Beit Kobi is a non-profit organization founded in July 2002 in memory of Staff Sgt. Kobi Ichelbom, who was killed in military action in Nezarim, in the Gaza Strip.
Kobi was an outstanding IDF soldier and commander in the Givati Brigade, who was enlightened by the love he felt towards his family and country. Beit Kobi set a goal to act according to the spirit of the unwritten will left by Kobi as a soldier and commander: to support and help soldiers in need.

Thanks to the organization’s activities, Kobi’s big heart continues to beat among tens of volunteers, and warms the hearts of thousands of lone soldiers in Israel.

Beit Kobi is a civilian organization certified by the IDF in a legal document, to provide assistance to lone soldiers and to hold value related workshops for officers and commanders in the IDF.
