so what is happening to the $50,000 dollars they fundraised.
I don’t mean to be critical, but I gave a nice donation, and I want to know – will I get it back?

First, let’s see if the kitchen actually opens, then if you gave a donation like I did, after deducting the cost of feeding the 200 bochurim for the time the kitchen was closed, if you desire a pro-rated refund, you may contact charidy.com/sevenseventy and they will forward you message to the sponsor of the page.

Aren’t their parents concerned for their health? Maybe Rov or Mashpia needs to reach out to the parents…

200 tickets for 200 bochurim = $200,000.00. Sounds less expensive to feed the bochurim. How about donating $18.00.

Come on. Let them go home and let their parents feed them. They can Daven anywhere and for sure not social distancing.

The yeshiva is closed!

The yeshiva is closed but it has changed into a hotel, a restaurant, a hachnosas orchom…whatever, but not a yeshiva, because the yeshiva is closed!

Fine

A hachnosas orchim with bochurim learning and davening all time, with social distancing and daily shiurim from the Rosh Yeshiva (Harav HaGaon Labkowski), the Mashpiim (HRHT Zarchi and HRHT Golomb), etc. Wait, that sounds like a yeshiva.

These precious bochurim are learning day and night to allow our Holy Shechuna to benefit from this Kedusha with an an abundance of Brachos B’gashmius and B’ruchnius.
It is our honor and privilege to contribute to their permanent slush fund for all emergencies whether it be food, clothing or airline tickets to fly home at a moment’s notice.
