“Machshava Tova” (A Good Thought) Association was established in 2003, with the goal of reducing the social gap through technology and personal empowerment, in Israel's social and geographical periphery. Since then, the association has established dozens of technology centers in which over 45,000 people took part in hundreds of basic, advanced, enrichment and professional training courses. The courses are for children and youth at risk, people with disabilities, job seekers and senior citizens. The association appeals to all Israeli sectors of society, including new and old immigrants, people from the ultra-Orthodox and Arab sectors, and more.
