Hebron IT Academy

Creating a new future for underprivileged youth

 
After a successful experience in IT in the United States, native Ukrainian couple Liliya Valihun and Ihor Bula decided to help vulnerable youth in their home country. Due to the difficulties associated specifically with working to help youths in crisis, it was determined that this project should be a Christian based organization. This contributes not only to the formation of a quality educational environment, but also unites the students of Hebron IT Academy into a healthy caring community, which fosters a compassion for and helps the next generation of students who will come after them.
