Medium: The people running and more importantly the people advising the program aren’t running for office.
As I wrote earlier, they really had zero plans and felt little need to do what was published in today’s papers. A decision was then made that perhaps there would be girls who would be helped and would feel more comfortable if they published a few names of well recognized rabbonim and R”Y who endorsed the program so they did it.
They didn’t do it because they felt any need to validate the program, and they certainly didn’t do it to make anyone in the YWCR happy.
