As of October 7, 2023, we are in the midst of one of the most difficult periods in Israel's history. In solidarity with the country, the Afeka community has come together to provide support through meaningful contributions.
Engineers possess crucial problem-solving skills and knowledge that empower them to play a vital role in strengthening Israel's resilience and recovery. We have spearheaded numerous initiatives since the start of the Iron Swords War, some of which are outlined below.
If you are interested in supporting these or other efforts through donation, please contact the AsOne campaign at AsOne@afeka.ac.il for more details.
