02 Purpose and work

What the charity exists to do

The purpose of the charity is to help increase awareness and understanding of torah true judaism. We do this by sponsoring and supporting establishments such as Schools and Yeshivahs, who educate youth for a Torah True Life, and kollelim, for senior students in preparation for becoming teachers and rabbonim. We also give grants to individual senior rabbinical students whom we judge will play a prominent role in Jewish leadership and education in the future. We gve financial support to rabbinic students who are under financial pressure.
