dbo:abstract
  • AMIT (Hebrew acronym for Organization for Volunteers for Israel and Torah, English acronym for Americans for Israel and Torah, and a homonym in Hebrew for amit (friend)) is an American Jewish volunteer organization providing Jewish values–based education to 37,000 children in Israel. AMIT operates 108 schools and two surrogate family residences (youth villages). The AMIT Network was selected by Israel’s Ministry of Education as the leading Jewish educational network across all measurements, including quality bagrut, pedagogical innovation, pluralism and bridging the gap, lowest dropout rate and integrity. AMIT has raised bagrut scores across the reshet (“network”), and it has significantly increased the number of students studying math, physics, science and technology subjects at the highest levels. AMIT graduates maintain a high level of military service or national service (95%), and they enter the army and the workforce equipped to meet the challenges of the 21st century. AMIT maintains a balance of 70% of its schools in Israel’s periphery (disadvantaged areas) and 30% in the more affluent center of Israel. When new schools are admitted to the network, this balance is maintained. On June 14, 2020, they have organized a Virtual Tour of Israel where they have presented the first National Mother-in-Israel.
