#1 And helping someone with ‘parnossa’ is not a huge ‘Mitzvah?’
‘Rambam’ says it’s the greatest form of ‘tzedakah.’
‘Kol HaKovod’ to The Geshem Center
‘Ayn kemach, ayn Torah.’
Yashaar Koach to whomever worked on this to upgrade our community that people should be able to stand on their own feet and pay their bills tuitions and more. Thank you!!!
The greatest level, above which there is no greater, is to support a fellow Jew by endowing him with a gift or loan, or entering into a partnership with him, or finding employment for him, in order to strengthen his hand until he need no longer be dependent upon other
why be negative? what does yeshiva have to do with it, the people beyond it are trying to bring a better life to the people of Crownheights that want make a living,
It would have been nicer if some prestigious Yeshiva would have moved to CH
