Computer literacy is essential to academic and professional success. Afikim is dedicated to breaking down the barriers of access to technology.
To enhance academic and technical skills, and to bridge the digital gap between children from disadvantaged backgrounds and their computer-savvy Israeli counterparts with access to the latest technologies at home, Afikim offers a top-level computer-education program. Each Afikim branch features a computer learning center outfitted with the latest technology and learning tools. Professional instructors closely guide each student at his or her own pace in acquiring the computer know-how and skills that are essential for their academic advancement.
In addition to the courses, Afikim’s children use the computers to prepare for homework assignments, research projects, and independent study.
Love, joy & happiness – these are the gifts the children receive at the Afikim center. Not to mention – attention, kindness, a comforting atmosphere, academic help and, of course, a warm meal.
