Yeshivat Mitchabrim – "Saving the Home"

Another campaign? Crowdfunding again? What do you want from me!

This is surely the thought that comes to mind when you see this campaign.

Read on and understand that here, it is something different.

We aren't looking to raise millions!

We don't have debts that need to be repaid and we don't want to change the world,

We just want a 'home'!

 

There are dozens of young men wandering the streets, without a goal and without meaning. They haven't found their place in any yeshiva (Torah academy) and they wander throughout the world—detached, confused, and lacking purpose.

It is our duty to find them a home, to give them a place that will be theirs, a place where they will feel 'mitchabrim' (connected).

 

Yeshivat 'Mitchabrim' is not just another yeshiva; 'Mitchabrim' is a home. It is a yeshiva that doesn't just serve as a framework or background scenery, but a place that connects to the young man in whatever state he is in—embracing him, empowering him, and giving him the ladder to ascend higher and higher.

Over the years, dozens of young men have passed through Yeshivat 'Mitchabrim'. With the help of the wonderful staff and the special atmosphere of the yeshiva, they succeeded in building their futures and establishing faithful homes based on true recognition and inner love for the service of the Creator.

 

About two years ago, following an external dispute between the Jerusalem Municipality and the Israel Land Authority, the home was destroyed. Formidable bulldozers, accompanied by large police forces, raided the yeshiva and demolished everything. The young men stood around in tears, weeping, unable to believe this was happening to them, unable to believe they had nowhere to go.

But when one is truly connected, nothing can stand in the way. The young men picked themselves up; despite the anger and lack of trust in the entire system, they found a temporary location. They sat in a circle, shoulder to shoulder, heart feeling heart, and began to rebuild themselves. For over two years, they have been wandering from place to place, from tent to tent—connected to themselves but disconnected from the ground, without a permanent home and without anyone to be there for them.

 

With Siyata D'Shmaya (Heavenly assistance), after many efforts, the yeshiva management found a new plot of land where the young men can re-establish their home. It is a place that can serve as a true home for those who haven't found themselves anywhere else—a place they can connect to with bonds of eternal love.

Work on the yeshiva grounds has already begun. With mesirus nefesh (self-sacrifice) and immeasurable efforts, the yeshiva directors managed to lay the foundation, but here they have collapsed. Expenses are climbing and intertwining, the workers are demanding their pay and threatening to leave, and the young men stand by watching in disbelief. Do they have no chance? Do they not deserve to sit in a yeshiva like everyone else? How are they different from any other Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) young man?

They are looking at you. Their hearts are screaming "Save us!" Their eyes are fixed upon you. Will you let them remain alone? Will you ignore their cry, or will you mobilize and help them build their home?

For every shekel you donate, you will merit another young man who will ascend higher and higher—another young man who, in your merit, will build his future. This is your opportunity for an infinite merit that will accompany you in this world and the World to Come.
