They benefit from professional and personal guidance that helps them succeed in activities and make significant contributions to cities like Netanya, Acre, Jerusalem, and South Tel Aviv
Rationale
For children growing up in poor and distressed neighborhoods, role models of success are hard to come by, sometimes making criminal behavior look like a tempting shortcut and perpetuating the cycle of poverty and distress. Those who have the ability and foresight to break out and seek higher education often lack the financial means to achieve it. The program promotes social and educational integration and community involvement for youths and their families, while student mentors can complete their degrees by being provided accommodation and study grants. (including 60 students and 240 schoolchildren).
