Members of the Kollel Menachem in Crown Heights that was established by the Rebbe in 1962 under the aegis of Machne Israel and the Mazkirus, were generously assisted for Pesach.
First, they got a bonus allowance from businessman and philanthropist Sholom Ber Drizin who has also given to another 3 Chabad kollels that operate in New York.
The kollel members, known as yungeleit, personally signed a framed thank you for “contributing from his wealth a large amount” during the period of time they dedicated to learn before finding a job or Shlichus.
The donation was facilitated with the help of R’ Eli Slavin, an activist and a Community Liaison of Congresswoman Yvette Clarke and Crown Heights businessman R’ Noach Fox.
Another Pesach gift was given by a donor who remained anonymous. Kollel members were told to order meat from the Crown Kosher Meatmarket on Kingston Avenue and that 40% of the bill will be subsidized.
“Through their benevolent donations they put smiles on the faces of some 100 young couples and enabled them to enjoy yomtov,” said Rabbi Noach Fox, Administrator of the kollel.
nice.
But!
no one matches R’ Binyomin Klein’s full assistance since R’ Chodokov passed away….!
A Kosher and freilichen peisach to Reb SB Drizin for his “chesed”
And to Reb Eli and Reb Noach for the “Bseiver Ponim Yofos”.
A meember of the kollel, who needed this generous gift to have a B’kovodike Yom Tov.
As a Kolel yungerman Reb Noach has paid us in full for the entire year. Always coming in to learn and listen to our problems. He always tries his best for the Kolel. I was able to sit here since tishrei in his zechus !!!
SAVED THE CH KOLEL … with help from many. We have a Kolel and money in his zechus….
It’s so beautiful that he demonstrates chasivus for our yungeleit who are sitting and learning torah! Y’yasher koach to him and to all those who arranged it.
A true ish chesed. may HKBH bentch him with gezunt and many happy and healthy years. R’ Sholom Ber we love you. Chag Kosbher Vsomeach
He also gave every member of the shluchim office a very generous pesach pesach gift he is a true chosid chasid

Two yungeliet Reb Noach and Reb Eli are from two different political parties, have agreed to disagree…..
But also agreed to build and be engaged is the positive.
