Cinema Park-Edutainment

Cinema Park Network (CPN) created by Ori Yardeni, is the worldwide leader in the production of multi-sensory educational experiences. Thanks to Afikim’s creative development and support of CPN’s 4-hour film Zehut Yehudi - Exploring Our Values and Roots Though Jewish Eyes program, thousands of Israeli students every month enjoy a multisensory, interactive experience while learning about Jewish identity and values.

When CPN developed a mobile version of its technology and brought "Mobile Cinema Park" to America in 2009, The Afikim Foundation under the guidance of Arachim, again partnered with CPN to produce Matter Spirit-Chomeir Ruach. This cinematic journey, integrates 3D projection, interactive wireless remotes, laser lighting and special effects, and transport viewers in the course of moments, into the human body, mind and soul as it explores the uniqueness of man.

Chanukah Premiere 2009 From December 13-18, 2009, Afikim brought Matter Spirit-Chomeir Ruach to the New York/New Jersey area with showings for the Russian American Jewish Experience, Young Israel of Jamaica Estates, Hebrew Academy of the Five Towns, Beth Shalom Synagogue and the JCC of the Palisades.

JUMP

The Afikim Foundation’s JUMP - Jewish Upbringing Matters Program - provides Jewish after school classes to public school students in South Florida. Currently located adjacent to the Ben Gamla Charter Schools in Hollywood and Plantation, Florida, students delve into such topics as: Jewish holidays, weekly Torah reading, prayer, and the importance of Israel and Jewish unity, as well as thought-provoking subjects like why Jewish identity is relevant in the modern world.

In today’s busy world, thanks to JUMP, hundreds of Jewish families are now able to balance the need for after school child care, Hebrew School, homework and family time.

Camp JUMP is launching in the summer of 2010 and two more afterschool programs in Miami and Kendall are planned for the 2010-2011 school year.
