The Purim revolution is growing every year.
This year, more than ever before, with the current difficult matzav for our B’nei Torah, the world is scrutinizing our every action. There is so much negativity worldwide that we are able to change. Let us give our Yeshiva Bochurim an opportunity to portray a positive message of simchas Purim.
Six years ago on Purim night a mini-revolution happened that addresses this issue. A group of very special Baalei Battim sponsored 23 bochurim from Yeshiva Torah Temimah to sit and learn for two hours on Purim night. Each bochur received a $250 check to a tzedokah of his choice. The bais hamedrash boomed with kol torah and this certainly was the ultimate in Kimu V’kiblu of the simchas hatorah.
For Habochur Hanechmod Yeshayahu Dov Eckstein A”H it would be his last Purim. That year he came home with such simcha – he had learned with such ‘geshmak’ on Purim night, and through this unique learning program his group had collected over $3,500.
Every year, l’ilui nishmoso the family continues this beautiful program. It has been an amazing success. Last year there were over 250 bochurim and yungerleit who were committed to learn TWO hours on Purim by night in the bais hamedrash. Success breeds success, and many Roshei Yeshivos have called to emulate this program in their own yeshivas across the country and around the world.
Many more Bochurim have been calling again to continue this program this year. We must not say ‘No’… We need your assistance to continue…
PLEASE help to support this beautiful program and sponsor a bochur learning Purim night, BY CLICKING HERE.
With your kind donation you will be creating DOUBLE zechus. 1) The money will go to bona fide Tzedokah 2) A bochur will learn in your zechus TWO hours on Purim by night.

This is a kiddush Hashem, and it should be supported. There were also many programs called “Yeshivas Mordechai Hatzaddik” that were held during the day of Purim. I hope they will be repeated this year, as I have not seen any advertised in Brooklyn. I have always been displeased by the extent of collecting by bochurim for their yeshivos, not because of a challenge to the worthiness of the cause, but by the greed of the pressure to bring in minimum sums of money. The yeshivos claim they rely on that collection for their budget. Actually, it has resulted in some bochurim failing to fulfill the mitzvos of the day, which I know from experience. This is bad chinuch, and the making of the budget does not balance with bad chinuch.
Purim is about strengthening of Torah, not balancing a budget. Priorities need to be straight.
