We came from eleven countries — Cameroun, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Eritrea, Ghana, Guinea, Ivory Coast, Malawi, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, South Sudan, and Sudan-Darfur.
Men and women, singles, and those with families, we are aged 18 and higher studying full time for three to four years to earn a bachelor’s degree at one of nine Israeli colleges: Academic College of Netanya, Academic College of Tel Aviv-Yafo, College of Law and Business in Ramat-Gan, Seminar Hakibutzim, Interdisciplinary Center (IDC) Herzliya, Sapir Academic College in Ashkelon, Tel Aviv University, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and Ben Gurion University. To earn a master’s degree, we study additional years.

Teen mentor project
we will help you achieve your dreams
Teen Mentor Project (TMP) aspires to remedy school failure, close information gaps, and strengthen academic and vocational skills for currently eighteen students in the African refugee community. The participating students’ academic levels range from grades nine to recent high school graduates. We boost knowledge, skills, and accomplishments in our students using culturally relevant curricula, computers, and suitable learning materials.
TMP helps them develop competencies in English, math, and science while practicing listening, speaking, and socializing skills. Those who want to earn degrees and certificates while learning about vocational and higher education program opportunities can receive training to meet criteria and admission requirements, learn to identify employment opportunities, develop skills in finding and applying for work, and practice proper communication and social skills with access to ASO’s workspace and mentors.
