Educating for Excellence
Educating for Excellence is an Israeli nonprofit organization that operates unique educational centers throughout Israel's economically distressed areas, for children who possess potential for individual and academic excellence. Educating for Excellence aspires to nurture and promote excellence in children and youth under social, family and economic circumstances that would otherwise hamper their potential for success.
