Congregation Zichron Binyamin was founded in 1998 to serve the growing Sephardic population�in Lakewood. Within a year the original group of twelve had grown tremendously, with Zichron�Binyamin hosting a morning and evening kollel.

The success of the kollel soon inspired its founder to dream of something more daring:�Lakewood�s first full-time Sephardic kollel.

Why the need for such an institution in Lakewood, a city full of talmidei chachamim and kollel�families?

Rabbi Bitton saw the potential to groom a small group of elite kollel members of sephardic�lineage into outstanding talmidei chachamim and yirei shamayim.

These young men would be the nucleus of an institution that would exert a far reaching�influence on the broader torah community.

The young kollel scholars would one day take the helm of leadership as tomorrow’s roshei�yeshivot, rabbanim and teachers, able to transmit our torah with our precious heritage to the�next generation.

Kollel Ohel Rachel, named in memory of Rachel bat Shulamit Haber A�H, became the jewel in�the crown of Lakewood�s sephardic community. Starting with a core of 12 avreichim in 2002, the�kollel went on become a magnet for some of the most talented sephardic bnei torah. Our�alumni have gone onto many prestigious positions in the torah world in Lakewood, Brooklyn,�and beyond.

Today, Purim Katan, the kollel was given the challenge by a group of generous benefactors to�raise $600,000 within the next 24 hours ending tomorrow Wednesday at 1 PM. Every dollar�raised will be matched three times. 100 dollars becomes 400, 500 becomes 2000, and 1000�becomes 4000! The catch is if we don’t reach our goal, we don�t get anything! It’s all or nothing!

Please help us reach our goal!
