Afikim Family Enrichment Association

Afikim is a non-profit organization, established in 2009, which provides youth at high risk the tools needed to break the cycle of poverty, first and foremost through education. Afikim's unique projects are based on a comprehensive and holistic approach which saves not only the child, but his family as well. Afikim serves a vital role within Israeli society enabling these children to reach their full potential. Due to rising numbers of children who fall below the poverty line and suffer from either neglect and/or abuse, Afikim's primary mission is to work with these children and their families, addressing their educational, nutritional and recreational needs. Afikim serves 600 youth at high risk and their families, and operates 16 educational and welfare centers throughout Israel. For further information, visit our website: www,afikim.org
