Shomrim members who were in the vicinity heard the sound of the crash nearly two blocks away, and ran over to the scene, arriving a mere seconds after the crash where they discovered that the driver of the car on the sidewalk, a red Honda, was being driven by an off duty NYPD officer who was on her way home for her shift.

Over half a century old, Educational Institute Oholei Torah does not rest on its laurels, and continues to look for better ways to empower its melamdim and scholastic staff, giving them the tools and resources needed to improve and raise the levels of chinuch, derech eretz and hiskashrus to the Rebbe.

by Rabbi Yoseph Kahanov Shliach to Jacksonville, FL
The story is told of a woman who was strolling in the park when she stumbled upon a precious diamond. Before she had a chance to place it into in her bag, she was approached by a hungry vagabond seeking alms. But nothing the woman offered him was sufficient.

The kind woman finally turned to the poor man in dismay: “What do you want?” What can I do to make you happy? The beggar pointed to the diamond in her hand: “That’s what I want.”

Without much ado the woman placed the diamond into his hand: “Here,” she said “It’s all yours.” After profusely thanking his generous benefactor, they were both on their way.
