A fire destroyed the Bayonne Yeshiva dormitory on Tuesday, forcing the Yeshiva to send home 50 Bochrim.

The fire broke out at around noon in the dorm located at�747 Avenue C. It appears to have been an electrical fire – causing extensive damage to the building.

With nowhere to house them, around 50 Bochrim were sent home until alternate arrangements can be made.

Yeshiva of Bayonne has been a tremendous source of Torah and Yidishkeit in Bayonne NJ for many many years.

The Yeshiva has launched a fund on The Chesed Fund website for all those wishing to help the Yeshiva rebuild their dormitory.�It will cost the Yeshiva at least $100,000 to just open the doors again to the dorm.
