The Avraham Agmon Excellence Scholarship was awarded this year to 12 outstanding Perach Tutorial Project tutors during a ceremony held at the Davidson Institute of Science Education. Perach Director Amos Carmeli noted that this annual ceremony, which is in its 19th year, presents the perfect opportunity to thank all the Perach tutors, who do tremendous work in a spirit of modesty and motivation, helping children from underprivileged backgrounds to realize their potential and blossom into motivated individuals.
In 2008, on Israel’s 60th Independence Day, the Perach Tutorial Project was awarded the most prestigious prize in the country, the Israel Prize, for lifetime contribution to the state and society.
