MAKSAM, a network of six neighborhood centers founded by Ethiopian volunteers in Hadera, helps Ethiopian-Israeli children integrate into mainstream Israeli society.

MAKSAM is operated by the Gidon Association of Ethiopian Jews, a non-profit organization committed to improving the future outlook for Hadera's young Ethiopian-Israelis by providing academic reinforcement, youth programs that strengthen social skills and self esteem, and educational programs that improve the coping skills of their local community.

The word MAKSAM in the Amharic language describes the process of a bee passing from flower to flower collecting nectar and producing honey.
