Join Rabbi Gordon’s Sefer Torah

The International Sefer Torah Campaign recently launched to mark the first Yartzheit of Rabbi Yehoshua Binyomin Gordon z”l, is now well on its way (see www.rabbigordon.com for updates).

The goal is to raise critical funding of $1 Million in support of the Rabbi Joshua B. Gordon Living Legacy Fund, established last year to perpetuate and expand the lifelong work of Rabbi Gordon.

Thousands of people are impacted on a daily basis by the programs and reach of Chabad of the Valley, the organization Rabbi Gordon built for over 40 years. Rabbi Gordon inspired an explosion of Jewish observance and activity in the greater San Fernando Valley, now with 27 Chabad Houses in an area with a diverse Jewish population of more than 250,000.

Reaching well beyond the confines of Southern California, Rabbi Gordon was known as a master teacher who engaged tens of thousands of people in his daily online classes. His precise explanations and lucid delivery have brought the joy of Torah study to students around the world. To date, these Torah classes have received over seven million views spanning 70 countries. One of Rabbi Gordon’s most fervent wishes was to further spread Torah to every corner of the earth.

By participating in the writing of a new Torah in his honor, congregants, students and friends of this legendary Shliach will have the opportunity to celebrate his life, honor his achievements, and partner in his legacy in the most fitting, enduring and meaningful way.
