As you know, it has been my זכות and responsibility to be involved in the השתדלות of being מחזיק the מקום תורה for which I am responsible.
A number of our בני החבורה have undertaken the project of assisting in this תפקיד. This, as an expression of their הכרת הטוב for what they gained through being part of our special מקום תורה, will definitely bring the ברכה of אשר יקים את דברי התורה הזאת.
I would also like to use this platform to express my intense הכרת הטוב to those who conceptualized this idea and are doing the עבודת הקודש of putting it into place, and of course to all that are participating. The idea of a monthly commitment does have a qualitative difference that can bring the benefit of this project to a different level altogether.
Just to update you on where we are holding - the ישיבה as of now has approximately 80 talmidim, 30 of whom are בחורים and the rest yungeleit.
בכבוד ובברכה

Dear Fellow Talmid,
All who have been זוכה to absorb the teachings and guidance of our Rebbi, מורינו הרב משה וולפין שליט״א, are well aware of the incomparable impact and enduring influence he has had and continues to have on our lives. For years, the Rebbe has been moser nefesh to maintain the Yeshiva, selflessly traveling numerous times a year to America and elsewhere to fundraise. This has been the primary source of funding for the Yeshiva, the Yeshiva that so many of us regard as having played such an important role in our growth in תורה and our successes in life.
As the years have gone by, the strenuous and time-consuming trips overseas have become increasingly more difficult for the Rebbe. At the same time, over the last couple of years costs have risen, requiring more funds than ever before to run the Yeshiva. This combination of challenging realities has propelled us to launch a bold campaign. Bezras Hashem we are aiming to set up a system in which supporters cover the Yeshiva's annual budget by donating on a monthly basis. The objective of the campaign is not simply to raise funds but to change how the Yeshiva's funds are raised.
Currently, the annual budget is $400,000. So, a goal has been set: for the first year, to raise $200,000. For the second year, $300,000, and for year three, $400,000. We are urging everyone to rise to the occasion and accept this responsibility upon themselves.
We should all take part by joining our fellow תלמידים and ידידים of the Rebbe and signing on as monthly donors and by reaching out to our circles of family, friends, and associates to garner more monthly supporters.
What stands to be gained here cannot be understated. By establishing monthly support, we will bezras hashem remove the heavy and disruptive burden of raising funds and allow the Rebbe to instead focus on teaching תלמידים. This will be a tremendous זכות, both for facilitating the teaching of תורה, as well as for being an incalculable חסד to the Rebbe.
Already, numerous תלמידים have accepted upon themselves to contribute monthly. Now, let's all show the Rebbe הטוב הכרת for what he has done for us by making a pledge for our monthly support and by setting a fundraising goal so that this campaign will be a success, bezras hashem.
Thank you and tizku lemitzvos,
Shalom Strickman
