UJIA invests in young people and education. We're behind you

UJIA in Israel

In the north of Israel, UJIA has started Galil-wide initiatives such as community transformation programmes and upgrading schools, as well as many individual local projects. These are intended to strengthen the region's social infrastructure and indirectly provide a significant boost to the local economy. Our Education Initiative spans the entire Galil and includes the upgrading of facilities and educational interventions, such as curriculum development and extra-curricular support. We also fund initiatives for sustainable employment opportunities, providing small business support and vocational training. We are heavily focused on community regeneration, linking with Tel Hai Academic College and Migal's world class research institute.

Shlomi High School - A first for the Galil

Shlomi High School is the first of its kind in the Galil - a cross-communal secondary school bringing together 500 religious and non-religious Israelis - and will provide a boost for a town with one of the country's highest unemployment rates.

Hemed Primary School - Closing the gap

The Hemed Primary School is part of a major new initiative to help close the social and educational gaps between Israel's centre and periphery. The program will combine academic achievement with building self-esteem for over 370 children.

Tel Hai Academic College - Social Sciences Faculty

The new Social Sciences Faculty is a central part of the new campus being built at the Tel Hai Academic College. By providing jobs and a quality educational experience, the new faculty will strengthen the region and encourage more people to make their home in the Galil.
