  • AM FOR THE NEW BOYS ON THE BLOCK

    GET OUT CURRENT VADD. U HAVE ACHDUS WHEN IT COMES TO PUT PEPOLE BEHIND BARS IN JAIL.

  • AN IMPORTANT REMINDER - PLEASE READ

    Our CHJCC & all of our other organizations that desperately need government / private funding are NON-PROFITS – here is what the Federal Judge explained when he removed Shrieber and Shpritzer from running Machne Menachem because of their illegal activites: “IT IS BEYOND DISPUTE THAT THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE N-PCL ( the specific laws governing non-profits) WERE ENTIRELY IGNORED AND THAT THE BUSINESS OF THIS CORPORATION WAS CONDUCTED BY SPRITZER & SCHREIBER, FROM AND AFTER 1996, AS THEY IN THEIR SOLE DISCRETION SAW FIT …..
    SPRITZER’S TESTIMONY & THE DOCUMENTARY EVIDENCE …..WOULD COMPEL A FINDING THAT AFTER 1998 (IF NOT BEFORE) THE CORPORATION HAD ONLY TWO DIRECTORS, SPRITZER & SCHREIBER, IN BLATANT DEROGATION OF N-PLC 702” Rabbosi- We can’t afford to vote someone on to our Vaad who ALREADY has a track-record for illegal activites concerning non-profits !!!

  • I voted - I was not asked for ID

    “Voters must bring a government issued ID; drivers license, non-drivers license, passport etc. for those who are not listed in the Tzach List you need to bring proof of residence, i.e. utility bill etc.”

  • To #3

    You weren’t, but that was an oversight, I was and had to come back a second time… So come prepared the first time and you won’t waste yours and everyone else’s time.

  • grave indicator

    We’ve seen voting by those that always made it a point to emphasize that crown heights is for peasants (but yet live here ???). They ridicule the entire idea of our Vaad (“Vaad Haklolo” and Rabbonim (i dont even want to go there). Who do you think they are voting for? I have a very good idea of the one person they hope to get in, and therefore did not vote for him. Let’s hear for whom you think they are voting.
