A full 79% of our participants successfully enter jobs that require a degree, compared to just 67% of the general population. The average monthly salary of our male program graduates is 3,500 NIS higher than that of haredi men who do not participate. Each year, our graduates add about 650 million NIS to Israel’s gross national product, and 100 million NIS to the state treasury.
