CHAZAQ | Born in Queens, Inspiring the World

[Music] Hi, my name is Amit Yagubi. >> My name is Aram Wilin. My name is Daniel Gday. >> My name is Anel Shalom and I'm the director of Khazak events. Do you know why Khazak is spelled with a Q? Because Kazak was born in Queens, but it's inspiring the world. Every Jewish child is special. And at Kazak, we give them that access. We give them that spark of knowing I am Jewish. And our mission is to bring Jewish child to the Jewish environment. You look into their eyes and you see such an innocence of children that want that are thirsting for Tyra. They're thirsting to get close to Hashem. We literally at Kazak when we walk into these clubs, we are sometimes the only connection to Judaism that they have during the week. We teach them how to respect and how to be respected, how to know what your values are, how to stand up for a value, but giving it to them in a language that they speak. >> We try to give them that love. We try to make them feel at home. And that automatically takes away any desire for them to commit to bad influences. It's >> not just a spiritual guide that you are for these kids. You're in essence almost like a father, a therapist, a friend. When a student comes up to us after class and says, "Rabbi, you know, I'd like to discuss something we spoke about in class and how it affects me personally," that's when I know we've done a good job. When a public school kid that I got involved with goes to yeshiva, I look at it like one of my own children. I'm sending Kosha. When it comes to yeshiva placement, started off in Queens, but it gradually expanded to Brooklyn, Long Island, Five Towns, Great Neck, Roslin. It's a traditional atmosphere that not only makes a child happy, but it makes them feel like they have a place of belonging. >> Then outside of the New York area, we have Florida, we have Arizona, we have Barak in Los Angeles, and Canada's being worked on in many other locations. Barak Benad, >> we now have our own youth center, which is amazing. We have a place for these children to be in a safe place instead of wandering outside. >> From public school students to men, women, young and old, Kazak is invested in their future. >> From bringing in renowned speakers from across the globe to our incredible ladies children's events to our mega kalabake events, Khazab really touches the soul of every Jew. One of the biggest decisions a person makes in their life is finding that right person to marry. We at Hadach Connections develop a personal connection with each single individual to help them find the right match. >> Kylo is impacting the community on a level that is beyond words to explain. >> Whenever somebody wants to grow spiritually, that wants to have a connection, a personal connection, that's where the colo fills its void in this community. The people that work in the Kazak organization come with the thought of what more can we do? What else can we give? >> It's a team united by one singular mission. Building a stronger future, one life at a time. Whatever is needed, Kazak is there. And they're there 24 hours a day. We're working strong. We're working hard. And we're working Kazak. [Music]
