One of the mosty misinformed posts here in quite a while. And that takes some doing.
1) Schools need buildings. That is a fact. If there were not someone dedicating a good portion, schar limud would be even higher.
2) Who do you think picks up much of the budget shortfall for so many yeshivos as it is. The same gvirim. Without the plaques and all. Apparantly the posters have no inkling of the amount of tzedakah that is given by some of the gvirim and hom many mosdos and cause they support. There are individuals who give many, many millions of dollars a year, and much more than ma’aser and even chomesh.
I can’t believe the uttter audacity of posters here with their demands.
And these are people who are helping the yeshivos that do not charge annual tuitions of $25,000 per year (those schools also have budget shortfalls), but tuitions that are a quarter of that amount. It is only because of the geneosity of these donors that tuitions are as low as they are as it is.
You want to see the books of schools? Sure, if you would help dealls with all the crinches. Not for you to sit there and second guess every single difficult decision the hanhalah had to make and to go ahead and talk about all sort sof provate information on the street (You know who gets what, aho has problems paying tuition, vchulu). Because that is what happens with many of these “back seat” suggesters when someone takes them at their word that they want to help.
And I am talking from specific knowledge from more than one yeshiva.
