Oholei Torah Bais Medrash Undergoes Major Expansion

To accommodate the many bochurim who wish to enter the Oholei Torah Zal, the Board of Directors, together with Rabbi Yossi Langsam, Executive Director and Rabbi Mendel Blau, Menahel Kloli undertook a major expansion of the Raitport Beis Medrash. For the coming year, Oholei Torah Bais Medrash expanded to host about 400 bochurim from over 22 countries worldwide and 30 states across America.

Over the summer months, the Zal offices and facilities were relocated, creating an additional 3000 square feet to the Bais Medrash.

Rabbi Elchonon Lesches, Dean of Bais Medrash, said this is a moment of pride for each and every alumni of Oholei Torah, to see how Oholei Torah rises to the occasion and goes above and beyond to accept the many bochurim wishing to learn and grow in the special atmosphere that is found only in Oholei Torah.

The following Mashpi’im and Maggidei Shiurim joined the faculty, to give each bochur the maximum attention they deserve.

Rabbi Yossi Shmuckler – Meishiv, Rabbi Blasenstein – Meishiv and Maggid Shiur, Rabbi Vigler – Meishiv and Bochen, Rabbi Shaw – Mashgiach, Rabbi Spiero – Mashgiach, Rabbi Levi Greenbaum – Mashpia.

This expansion project is one of many that Oholei Torah is currently undertaking in all its divisions, following the Rebbe’s vision that Oholei Torah should expand and grow to accept multitudes of Talmidim.
