Atid Plus Fund For Education In Israel (Ra)

Atid Plus Fund For Education In Israel (Ra) is a non-profit organization that has received several cooperative agreements and project grants from the U.S. Department of State to support educational and cultural exchange programs in Israel. The organization operates an American Space cultural center and provides STEM and technology education focused on engaging girls in tech activities and competitions.

Through federal grant funding, Atid Plus has implemented programs that promote public diplomacy objectives in Israel and the broader Middle East/North Africa region. Key initiatives include operating STEM centers and providing educational training to facilitate girls' participation in the Technovation competition, an international technology entrepreneurship program for students. The organization has received awards from the Department of State's Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs and Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs, primarily through the ECA - American Spaces and Investing in People in The Middle East and North Africa programs. In addition to educational programs, Atid Plus has used grant funds for cultural exchanges, alumni outreach, media projects, and efforts to foster regional cooperation through shared learning experiences. Award amounts have ranged from a few thousand dollars for specific events to over $100,000 for sustained cooperative agreements spanning one to two years.
