it's unbelievable always nice correct always nice so I he I heard some a little bit uh I heard your Rabbi now in isua correct yes JC High School JC high school so give me a little bit of background where you grew up till the 10 years my my son is 10 years old so I see every year a different you know where was I when I was 10 years I always remember 10 years and then so actually it's pretty funny I was here about 17 years ago about 17 years ago um after joining the zone and I spoke with Lea schmeltzer back in the day so uh we grew up in Stan Island um my family got introduced to ra Min and the whole uh Ur organization it started for me for myself uh I went to JFS Elementary School and every Thursday night we had mishmar in the Yesa Stan Island and they set us up with a Kusa once every every Thursday night I still remember his name RAB L wow and uh we built a tremendous connection together um it was you know something that I looked forward to every single week to go to mishar learn with him play basketball with him after all the things that we had the food and the snacks um and from there the bond continued and convinced me to go to the Zone boy Zone the first year they opened up 2006 best the zone of the best in the world the best summer I've ever had in my entire life for sure wow um and from there it just continued you know everything that we've always had with with uh R Min all the trips Six Flags um and then the real climax of that trip was to go to ra Suka afterwards and he would ask us questions and give us prizes that was the the ultimate Joy of all these trips and it really built such a tremendous connection with uh for me for my family and the whole Ura organization this is amazing you know I was I was many times in the zone there's where you see in the zone I don't think you see it everyone else they do it with so much the you know it's not just you do you do this you do that with you feel it there's an energy you can feel and you were you were with Raba Mintz till till what age and I mean I'm still with r Min now I mean I mean um you got married by the I got married I got married when I was 19 a little bit uh crazy so yeah I I went to I went to discover you also before before I want to discover you they helped us out a lot with uh tuition and with help going to Israel and then I went to Yeshiva and then I got married when I came back and then I went to discover you again even uh afterwards um so we continued you know my my family my mother still goes to Torah spot with in Stan Island and it's just every opportunity we have to be with with Ura we take advantage we go on sometimes to the shabbaton and pesot different events whatever we could do to be with is is the Highlight so I see you I see a Ura success story correct I guess so not for me not only for me for my entire family entire family so so what people don't realize when they're supporting Ura they're supporting yish guide in the biggest way 100% for Generations Generations generations and they say the asked a rabbi once why in the there was a city where a lot of Eden was sitting and learning learning why you see their children are not going the same way so they said because they were learning they they did they they they they were serving God in in in like in a I wouldn't say the the pressure way but it was like everything with the with we have to do this you have to do this I think the other the other places like a lot of place you doish with with fire with I think that's this is ur they teach you to do yish with with happiness and joy and and dancing definitely I mean I can tell you you know growing up there's always this stigma of uh you know being religious it's difficult it's a burden it's too hard um so many restrictions Ura the the the amazing thing of Ura was they like you said they taught you that being religious is so much Sim they're so so rewarding it's so beautiful for you for your family for everything that that continues on that's the that's the that's the greatness of what Ur does for every single person you I'll tell you just I'm sure we're about to end in a few minutes I'll tell you an amazing thing just the what I believe is the epitome of the success of Ura you know many organizations which are all incredible they have different programs and there's a lot of people in the programs and they different Shum and different things ur's individuality for every single person you know they set you up with a Kusa one1 they have Torah mates they have everything with an individual care for every single person and it helps you grow in your own way and that's the amazing thing of UR and also the fact that they're so involved in every single family I'll tell you a very quick story We Were Once I'm one of four boys I'm the youngest we were once on uh in pesak at the zone and after daving after we all go to shake his hand and my father's there with all the with all of us the four boys and with pride he goes to introduce us to ra says Rabbi these are my four boys and cracks a smile and he looks at him he says Mr zani I know your boys better than you we've been involved with Ur for many many years and it's it's we have so muchar whatever what everything that Ur has given us for our family and uh we just hope it continues to grow it's from what it was uh 20 whatever 15 years ago to what it is now it's a different world and I'm sure hopefully it will only continue and grow and uh help save hundreds if not thousands of lives like it saved me and my family uh and everything that RAB thank you so much

auction or go online at Ura auction.org Ura auction.org we have uh here with us Rabbi Lazar and you have a special special interview for us this evening Rabbi Lazar yes very ex very exciting for us here at Ura we at Ura by and large we don't have our own schools with everyone's help we are able able to help hundreds and even thousands of children who began their careers in public school and are able now to go to Yesa schools and we do that by partnering with manal and Manalo esteemed manal and Manalo across the country who help us in their schools educate the children that really in the end you are the ones all of our supporters are helping make possible and tonight we're going to have the to meet Germain is the man and rash Shiva the leader of Baraga Institute a Yesa that's been helping clausel for close upwards of 45 years close to 50 years Kara and we're close to a 100 of those Ura students currently are we can't wait to meet him we can't wait to introduce him to our listening audience how well he's right here Rabbi J how are you doing welcome on to the uon it's great to be here that's it's one of my dreams to be on be on the UR yeah you know that that that's something people people don't realize when you when you donate to Ura some of what you're donating to allows us to create um a Jewish Education for so many children who otherwise wouldn't and you're out there on the front lines educating these educations yes so we are excited we are very excited RAB J welcome it's our C it's ur's C to host you here this evening we're very excited that you're here maybe just for openers for beginners if you could just share with our audience a little bit about Baraga just tell us a little bit about what you do and what the Moet is about sure my pleasure first of all thank you for having me and it's an honor to be here so bagola is the Yeshiva which has kindergarten actually little preschool through 12th grade and um what what's unique about bagola is that there are probably other schools that service children from public school but what's unique about bagola is that we're a Yesa our hash are like a regular Yesa our R our Lakewood graduates our moris our bakov graduates we run a Yeshiva the only difference is our students are all from a public school background and not a traditional from background and children come we teach them the basics of yish kite and bar it's a it's a home run well thank you that's very exciting and I myself had the Good Fortune to visit Baraga and to spend time with re Germaine and meet the T meet the Talos they're really doing something really amazing tell me you know we're here tonight for Ura tell us a little bit about the Ura Baraga partnership how how would you see um ura's inv ment with the Baraga school and with the talid and tmos how you how have you seen um that partnership benefit so um it's a very significant partnership and it helps us tremendously the way we bring children in from public school is because the parents understand that the tuition is going to be kept to a minimal and obviously the only way we can do that is with the partnership of an organization like Ura when we meet with a parent and the parent understands that Ur is there for them and we understand that Ur will be there for the parent that enables us to do our work without the substantial um Partnership of UR it would be it would it would make our work even harder thank you tell us a little bit about the transformation transformation you know a child walks in it's a yish it's someone that we all love and care about and have dreams about but they come they're coming out kind of straight off the boat fresh off the boat they're coming in from a public school and they're now spending their days and their nights year after year in Yesa how do you tell our audience please if you can share with us a little bit about that transformation process that happens sure so I'll I'll start off with the interview when I meet new students we interview them and the fah the test for a new student is did you ever hear of Abraham ainu that's the test did you ever hear of Moshe rabenu do you know how many days Hashem created the world in they asked that in brisk also before well our graduates will know the answer very good very good anyhow so we take a student that oftentimes is not very knowledgeable in yish kite and we bring them into the Yesa and the first thing that the first thing we're going to be offering a student is is a comfortable environment you're taking a a a a child that was in public school didn't feel usually children say they didn't feel safe they feel safe we've given them a safe environment we've given them too hot you know before we get to the all the yish we've given them two hot kosher meals we've given them an environment where they're greeted every morning by people who know their name teachers who care for them the students are always telling us what do you like better I like the fact that people know who I am I like the fact that the teachers know who I am I like the fact that I have friends I feel safe I'm amongst people that care about me so that's level one and then of course there's the yish there's the fact that children will spend years and years every morning coming in singing mod singing Bas children who didn't know anything now they sing every morning they're doing so they're doing they're learning and this goes on year after year they're encouraged to sing at home they bring it to their house they sing zirus in their home and they bring what they learn in the Yeshiva back home and slowly by the time a student graduates the dream is and usually the dream is fulfilled children become shabas sh mitz and go on to build their own families wow amazing you know I've heard some say that perhaps what sets Ura apart is not necessarily only what they're doing for the talmidim and the Talos the boys and the girls the children the teenagers but it's the impact that Ura has on the families on the parents of those tum and tmos could you share with us I guess first first I'll have to ask our Germaine if he agrees and assuming you do agree perhaps a follow-up question if you could just share with us how that plays out in Baraga it's definitely true definitely true and when we ask often times I'll ask a student so when you were in public school your parents were happy yes definitely your parents kept you in public school because they believed it was good for you so now that you're here in Yeshiva are your parents thinking about bringing you back to public school and almost always the answer is no and I say why why so what happens is that over the years that the children are in Yeshiva the parents and grow tremendously and the reason is on a couple of different points one is the children bring the yish kite home and when we partner with Ura there's another whole aspect to it and that is that the children the the parents have to do the the Ura Torah mates and that has a tremendous impact and the parents what's remarkable about Ura is they're on they're on their game parents know they can't get away with it and when parents try the funding gets cut the Yeshiva calls the parent you're not Ur isn't paying your tuition and it brings the parent back on board and that Circle where the children bring the yides kite home to the parents the parents are getting yides kite through Ura it brings it a complete into a complete circle whereas slowly the entire family transforms and that really is a home run that that combination the parent student combination thank you re thank you I can't tell you how much it means to us at Ura that you were able to be here tonight and share you know as I mentioned before we don't have our own schools we're working Kara with 183 different schools out there around the United States and Beyond and just to give our listeners and our contributors our helpers our partners just an idea just a mixas of what it is that's actually happening you're buying those $5 raffle tickets and I know you're hoping you're going to win I'm also hoping that I'm going to win we're all hoping that we're going to win but let's be honest anyone anyone who donates to Ura is a winner because it's D D you know before you go re Germaine just if if I can I don't want to get too personal but if I can could you share with us just maybe a short story about the impact than an Ura child had in your school sure um as I said earlier when an Ura child comes it transforms the family so we had recently an interesting story we had two girls came and it was not easy it was hard for them to come two girls came after a year one of the girls said the younger sister of two says I want to go back to public school that was what was interesting she went back to public school the oldest sister was there and one of the teachers told the older sister just doin doin that your sister comes back for 2 years the older sister daved that the younger girl should come back to public school after two years the parents who were secular brought the younger girl back to the Yeshiva this year and the father said a completely secular man I watched my two daughters go off every morning my daughter that went off to Yeshiva took her no time to get dressed and get out my other daughter that was going to public school took her over an hour every morning to get dressed he realized she's not going to school for the education he brought her back the two girls are barem steing and becoming from and it opened up the father's eyes to see the difference between public school and Yeshiva thank you thank you thank you a thank you for being here and thank you to all of you out there who are helping make this possible D make it by you calling

with the commercial [Music] break tell us five five things we should all know about torment okay that's a great question the size of the program I find is something that most people are really totally not aware of we have at this point over 6,000 participants in the program which uh counting the mentors is around 12,000 people in order to support that program we have a staff of more than 25 people in the touring Department with coordinators man Administrative Assistant I just heard from a mentor the other day someone in my neighborhood and he told me he says you know he there besides this the satisfaction that I get of seeing my toor mat's growth says I feel that I personally gain so much from this program the to makes program is not just a learning program it's a program to help people grow in their yish type and and a major part of that is the relationship that our our tour mates get with each other they become friends they invite each other to their simus in many cases they form close personal relationships and friendships that they with people that otherwise they never would have cross paths with another thing that I think that people are not really aware of is the scope of the different topics that we that people are learning in tourmate everything from simple Muna uh stories to people who are learning uh uh at the other end of the spectrum people who are learning the and finishing we provide or books once a year to our T mates for no cost number five is that I I think that many people don't think about the idea that what we are doing here at Ura is providing you with the opportunity to fulfill your obligation to CLI it's not just an obligation for Ura it's an obligation for every B and every from in cerol and when you learn with your to you can then encourage

when he went with t and volunteers literally knocking on doors to encourage and help Jewish parents send their children to ISA and though Ur has grown tremendously since those days Rob is still intimately involved in every aspect of the organization and one program he is perhaps most known for is the ask the rabbi a live open forum for questions on virtually anything related to yish as the rabbi started off as a highlight of UR events and has become a popular weekly live stream event with participants joining from across the country different time zones as the rabbi is now available in book form two with years of insightful questions and answers on hashkafa and Jewish practice published in an easyto read text available at your local Jewish bookstore actually now ready it's not one volume it's ready in its second volume and of course we encourage our listeners to check out the full Archive of of ask the rabbi clips on YouTube you can send in your questions at any time to ask the

person like a because people think why is why is a person better than the because he's a doctor he's a lawyer he's BL don't don't have all can't no that's not why a person is greater than that's it's like a doctor lawyer have a lot of money what makes it different from the fact we have we have that's what makes us into a a mench till we have that we just sophisticated if you teach him kill the to a so a the old all those has so many mainly that's our main goal we have ter mates that's the main expense is Tates and even more is is tuitions from from little kids until through Seminary so this people that are giving to they're giving M they have more children they make him into a mench and I want to mention like it's years before that there's another thing that everybody can do which is even more thaning financially just think if everybody listen to this program would take against a termate take a terate for thems to teach or to make a between a person to learn and somebody to teach him through through we'd have thousands of people M Le there thousands thousands of people listening to this program and watching and uh if take one even one terate for yourself or make a match between two people look thousands of people Lear K all the giving donations is indirectly kill the older together that get people to learn other but if you went by yourself and and to Le with the termate or directly making a between somebody know the termate through the through the office through the ter coordinat office so I urge everybody to help financially as much as you can but even more than that to try to make with yourself for others with those people not learning look how much more would have if we had another few Tes learning everybody big everybody and and this is what and that's what this is the best way and we are back here at the uru studios by the uron remember 18777 auction 18777 auction this is the moment thank you RAB Min for those inspiring words and thank you

for the Tates kumit [Music] okay everyone we are live now on the UR auction the radio we are sitting here now in the 's Retreat we just had a very historis very inspiring shabas with hundreds of Torah mates from all over the country and from Canada from as far as La Miami other places some Torah mates meeting therea for the first time this shabas and we heard from some Torah mates to me the most inspiring part of the shabis I'm sure everyone around will agree was by Shas when we had Reflections and Tor mates got up they were speaking about the experience that they had with the Torah mate and Mr Marty got up and he's and he is learning with this tor M for 12 years and he hasn't missed one week and 12 years ago when he started leing with this horate he was not able to make his own s he didn't know say was and this past PES not only did he make conduct own seder he had 15 guests 15 guests that are new to yish kite and he led the Seder for them and we heard from one of our Torah mates who he joined two years ago after his son was right here at his Zone Camp two summers ago and he came for visiting day and he was made aware of the Tor mates program and he signed up for Torah mat and two years later he's here at this Retreat where are you this Retreat want to tell us about tell us a little about what happened two years ago when you came to the zone so they offer me about this amazing program I join and I learn every week this amazing program recommended 100% for everybody okay thank you we also heard from the toate that just joined last week this is his first week in the Tor mates program [Music] ah [Music] the sh is [Music] sh is my [Music] sh [Music] there sh the [Music] is [Music] my all young [Music] and you know was so inspiring to me when one of our mentors got up and he said that yes he does teach his Torah mate every week and that's very inspiring to learn with him but the thing that inspires him the most is when he sees his mentor who came from a background without any all didn't know anything about and how he's changing his life and turning over his life and he's becoming from and that inspires him when he wants to work on something when something's hard for him he try he looks at his tmate and sees that his tmate is turning over his whole life he wasn't KN and now he keeps koser and he keeps shavis so that inspires him to do what he has to do as well [Music] by [Music] shall I come [Music] I went up a little [Music] then he shall [Music] uron 2024 on wsnr 620 a.m. Metro New York wnew 102.7 FM Metro New York w jpr 1640 a.m. Miami

tuition relief no I don't mean I tuition relief tuition supplement that Ur takes care of Ura will actually speaking of tuition you know that one of the things that Ura does is they help supplement the tuition for kelak that are coming from the public school and they and they bring him over into a yish school and give him a yish education but people will say it's very expensive to have a yish ucation because rabal has not yet come through with the tuition relief other states steps in there in New York there in other states States where there's no tuition relief assembl tuition relief exactly exactly but Ura kind of steps in and Big Time and takes care of that we heard earlier today gain from was on he was saying how without the Ura supplemental tuition help right they have a very hard time making making meat and that's not even relief one that's supplementation supplementation this is just one example of many of or schools that are are are are banking on would you believe that I didn't put that together the whole till just now that you are doing tuition relief but Ur does tuition does actually do tuition relief supplementation supplementation tuition all right amazing me and Rabbi Schnell back together again 18777 auction 187 77 auction at Ura auction.org we have tremendous uh things coming up all night long that's the first of many of many prizes what prize are you are you uh excited about this year raal I'm excited for a lot of prizes I wouldn't mind you know win the $36,000 cash yeah I like that too I feel like that's I feel like that's simple I think it just very easy you know have to be busy with a home makeover or this just give me the cash 36,000 and we move along with it it's you know what you know what I like there's actually a prize prize number 40 is tuition really yeah making the bus each morning won't be any easier but you will have $99,500 help rising cost of tuition $ that's an expensive tuition that that's about one kid $99,500 per kid per kid no no no they're not giving you per kid Tak care of one kid Tak one kid but that's how much tuition SCH it says that's the tagline is making the bus each morning won't be in you know speaking of the bus it reminds me of our former host yes Rabbi Abraham Kravitz should live and be well he used to be on here he's he's actually he can no longer come on because he's a member of the lsta and that uh that's a very prestigious position he won't degrade himself to come on the uon however we have an assemblyman who's willing to come on we have Rabbi Weinstein who comes on every year and uh and and bar PTZ and all these other people uh but Rabbi Kravitz the lsda says no I think he's too busy making sure we make the bus I hear he's got to make sure we make the bus I feel like he's he's just not able to answer the hard questions like you are you're able to come on here and you're like ask me whatever you want tuition tuition relief we're ready we're ready 18777 auction we good you're getting there is 18777 auction three sevens 18777 auction and this is the final Moment by the way this is the time to donate people that may be listening to us discussing the prizes yes thinking we're going to pick a prize it's not over yet this is time to give basically like an hour and an hour left $5 a prize inflation one there is a safe there is a prize for $100,000 now it's a little tricky because you can't just win $100,000 straight up but if you win another prize and like said way pick your name out let's say for a Shel and you win this prize then you get $100,000 B you have to win twice yes yes now you want to say like oh that sounds too ridiculous trying to the odds are last year on this show no someone won $100,000 so he won one prize and he won this so he got the other prize you like $110,000 this guy basically or $125,000 yes so people will say no that can't happen the odds are the odds are not in your favor well the odds are in and the Ura auction and and and you can win $100,000 if you do that what's the pick 50 prize that's like a tough prize the pick 50 prize 50 where is that number 37 I don't see that it says breathe deep and take a chance to win big pick one of five overturned cards yeah and would either five wow that's got to be a killer yeah it is a killer 5 50 500 5,000 or 50,000 correct and it's up to the person so how does that work and they don't get to choose which one they wantes choose a card no I understand obviously no one's going to pick five or 50,000 but we call the person on the phone yes how do they how they pick the cards we've done it before they say we have a card every card card number yeah 1 2 three four five number three they pick number three and under three is five bucks it could be so we woke the guy at 4:00 in the morning could to win $5 correct wow or it could be 50,000 that's I believe last year's winner won five grand which is not I feel like that's respectable five grand used to be tuition in Lakewood by the way used to be used to be before it it got higher yeah why did it get higher that's a good question I think the moers are raising now CU they figure you're going to get relief but we told you yeah yeah I think they should take you a little slow yes it's relief yes not replace correct are you gonna are you on this or what H it's tough you sound like you're okay uh and what else do we got we have a gum tour you can go to gum vacation anywhere vacation anywhere that's $9,000 to whichever vacation you want anywhere in the world correct that's amazing you could also win 100 times your donation up to 50K we have had multiple winners of that over the years meaning basically whatever you win whatever you donated you win 50 times that so if you put in $500 you win $50,000 we have had that I believe multiple times ,000 $50,000 we actually once had a guy who won $50,000 and gave it all to St re no way yeah guy from Cleveland P really give the full 50,000 to full 50,000 right up there he said he promised Hashem if he wins the money he has a certain sodaka that he's going to do it 50,000 okay now I think we are ready to hear a bit more about uru we heard about tuition we heard about we got we logged in upstate to the shabat what's going on very beautiful hear about the camp people realize that there are so many Volunteers in the organization of Ura hundreds maybe even thousands between all the Torah mates we heard there are 6,750 peers of tourmates that's 6,750 volunteers so now we turn the spotlight to the real heroes of the night our Fish Friends someone recently said that fish is perhaps the greatest MV of Our Generation that's a bold statement I like to think so I'm sure you do good friend of mine five and it sounds funny but it's true because fiveish is not just funny games fiveish is the secret behind ura's success as a kirov organization let me explain Ura doesn't actually do kir organizations can't do kirov Ur facilitates kirov it's really our army of volunteers On The Ground Learning one-on-one hosting events heading chill zones Staffing Camp those passionate people are the ones doing the kir carrying out ur's Mission and changing lives and fish is the reason everyone in the firm world knows Ura loves Ura and wants to be a part of what we do this year as part of the fiveish frenzy auction campaign we asked some of our volunteer and friends to join us in raising money but more importantly in raising awareness of the mission we are accomplishing together and now we invite a few of fish's top friends to come join us on a and share a little about what they do why they do it and how Ura with your help makes the work possible our first guest tonight our first one of the first fiveish friends is going to be someone that's part of the reiton program someone that has been to camp involved in the reiton program Rabbi Donnie Frank who I believe is going to be joining us here in studio good Frank welcome to the uron and special yes and tell us a little bit about what the ritson's program is what's your involvement how you got involved in this great program okay this is this is going to be a big job in a short amount of time but the reeson program like all uro programs is an incredible incredible program it's made basically to be um a service for people in shim um it's a covers really everything it helps uh uh just helps in every every way in fact my wife and I got involved with um the riton program really started when um we uh my wife had about a week before uh the summer about 15 years ago an opening came up in the girls Camp so she um she was asked if she would take that opening to be Masia and she went so we knew very little about Ur at the time but once you experience Ura you don't want to leave so we stayed around with Ura for a couple of years until we got a call about maybe seven years ago from the Rison program asking us if you'd be interested to come to the shabbaton and we have been hooked very very deep deeply since then twice a year now it's been twice a year and it's a shabus with hundreds of singles that aren't just random singles these are singles that are registered that are part of the program that the rebbit and shim get to know very personally this isn't just a random program and when they get to that chabas it is networking to a level you've never seen before it's very exciting it's really an incredible program the UR ritson's program you think that we have many campers that graduate the camp and come to our other programs and Torah mates and that and sometimes we're a little lost and Ur has that foresight to say you know something we have to take care of them to the next step and then we created this concept called the Ritson which has made to date dozens and dozens of many of them have actually met on those shaton absolutely in fact you mentioned this this thing about the um the um the way Ura sets it up uh a couple years ago I think it might have been during Co because it was a zoom program Ur had asked me if I would introduce the people from the Discover you program to the riton program and it was really the first time I get a chance to see the way the programs come together it there a lot of things but to see the handoff from Discovery you and be to be able to facilitate that to introduce them to the what the Reon program was showed at least me that this is you know Ur knows what it's doing and all of its programs are part of a very specific vision and so it really moves from the moment someone becomes jewishly aware and then becomes from and then gets involved and it's Yim and then it's getting into shim and then it's after marriage it's really incredible you know just to tell you some of the stats that people may be interested in hearing about when you hear these numbers There are 16 almost 1,700 members in the renissance program of girls and boys which is just a huge networking place to go they do these two Retreats a year where they have almost 300 people participating and this is the coolest thing last event there were six engagements that were made in one Retreat that means 12 people that came to an event that are in not knowing what this event is going to be about not knowing what's going to come from it they came hoping to have a good time in the beautiful urone campus and they met their ziv at this shabas through the help of the rebon volunteers through the help of the mentors through the help of uro facilitating it all but from one shabas let it 12 six I'm sorry six 12 people getting this is you know Perhaps Perhaps per chance Ura is the answer to the sh crisis we should just make shabat tones we should make reison rebon shabat and I see by the way it seems what what what's striking me interesting is all the major crisises Ura has their own answer to like they have their own tuition moive going on they have their shis thing going on but Ura kind of keeps it it's all for the for theim aspect I feel like if Ura expanded into the regular world we could solve the sh crisis the tuition crisis if I could just add on to that that point um people who have been to that shabbaton will ask that question why isn't this being done for all of klyo yeah so so you can speak to the people in charge to see that it's not so simple but I'll tell you that shabbaton takes 6 months to prepare wow it isn't just I mean I don't know exactly because I'm in the uh in in in in that part of it but I do know that there's an investment of so much time and effort to put that shabbaton together it doesn't just go like here's a shabus come out there and do what you do every shabus is different every time they do it they take the feedback and there's ideas it's it's never the same shabbaton so to do that for the all the time that's going to take a lot of Manpower I feel like it can be done andway Frank you know I think it's what what's unique about having people like you yourself you're someone that's a professional social worker I believe a marital counsel counselor so having that particular expertise being part of the rebon program probably lends a lot more than just being another Mentor in the program and gives much more of an insight into helping these people that the the couples or the potential that you meet by these shabbatones yeah I mean I I think that's um I'm not so much the shatun type my wife is more the networker and uh for me it's whatever any uh thing I could say or do to be helpful to the singles that show up there I try to make it available but uh that's really it's really incredible and the diversity of the sh that show up there is also pretty incredible I mean mean there's I can't tell you the numbers I don't have numbers in front of me but there's a pretty nice size staff of sh that show up there and also very diverse coming with their own skills my friend you bring along with you copies of your your incredible book that I believe is called the making of a dynamic duo um the title itself gets me very interesting yeah yeah yeah it's it's uh you know I feel like that's referring to me and Rabbi schel the host of The Many there many other you know types of dynamic Duos we could be dynamic duo I think that's what I think probably that's what probably husband and wife I I didn't think about the two of you but it probably would have been a good idea to have you guys highlight it but it's actually marriage a chapter for us yeah it's a marriage book so in the next Edition you'll add on the uh I actually made that mistake chapter you gotta that's like you know dynamic Duos in marriage Dynamic Duos in this Dynam yeah I made I made the mistake when I once spoke at one of these Ur shabbatones as we were introducing it so Ura has you know they have it's interesting because we've been to different programs besides the you been I believe also yes we we signed yeah so um there there's there's the Ura um the franchise the things that go on it every shabbaton so like the shim scramble so we had that there at the rebon shabbaton too everyone gets to meet each other so one of the scrambles I started by saying you I came to the shabas and the first thing I saw was two campbel the two camels sitting together you know by the lake and I'm thinking they really set the tone they found each other and that should be uh you know the beginning for all the sh I will tell you found afterward was a b show well I I found it afterward the two camels are both male so this Dynamic dual business it's you know it's very specific for marriage you know sorry I kind of messed up on that one excellent excellent Frank thank you so much for joining us okay looking forward to seeing our future Ur events and thank you for being one of the fiveish friends but one of the people that are really doing the real work of Ura because again Ur is the organization that facilitates the kiru But ultimately it's people like you volunteers the thousands of them the army of Ura that is out there doing the I think that was one of the words you want to say the arm it like that yeah that so thank you very much for joining us pleas and we'll be in touch with thank you okay all the best one of the other amazing programs that Ura has we talking about Tor mates yeah the car winners with two Torah mates 100% but sometimes you have some there's adults have t Torah mates kids come to Camp they get Torah mates yeah but then you have sometimes there boys and girls that are not yet coming to camp they're not ready to go to sleep away camp whatever the reason is and they want a torado so so Ura with their again their foresight they just look ahead of the game they said what are we doing about these kids so they start a new program called Junior Torah mates oh wow and we're going to be joined tonight by a junior Torah mate who's be coming on this stage to talk about a little bit K welcome hi Hi how are you are you a junior Torah mate or like that what did he say you're a junior Tor mate I am a Junior tourmate I've been a junior tourmate now for about six seven months started this year and never looked back was amazing amazing always been an amazing journey and it's a really special opportunity and I'm very grateful for it so can you tell us a little bit about like the idea of the whole Junior tourmates you on the phone how do you get connected how did the whole thing happen and what is it like sure so to start how I got connected um my family is pretty much an Ur family I have two older brothers an older sister both went to the Zone which inspired me to go to the Zone when I was in high school uh and that was I guess what propelled my journey and take care of uh it was an amazing eye openening experience and it sort of taught me that you know I have so much to give you don't need to be an expert you don't need to you know know the answers to everything you just have to to have the passion you have to have the desire to make a difference um and you could really make a big impact on the lives of so many just like that you know I'm so happy you're saying that by the way I'm sorry for interrupting you I can't lose that that thing you just said because it's so important people to hear that many times people are intimidated it's not to me what am I going to answer what am I going to do they they may ask me a question my Tates going to ask me I'm not going to have the answer it's not for me and like we just heard you say you don't have to have the answers that's right absolutely that's right the Tor mat is not about having the answers it's about learning who knows who knows really really he knows all the answers come the Tate coordinators there's so many great great great ones they're all great it's all about a connection through Torah connecting to someone through Torah that's what I think I think and just jump in don't be so worried about will I know this will I know that that's right you don't have to know anything it's the passion so I'm so happy you mention that and that's really the key to it right so my family was always involved with Ura I was raised I guess in like a home that was very open and inviting and accepting we my mother was involved with car of on campuses I remember we had a shabus growing up with you know college students in the home I grew up in Scranton and not a liquid girl um so we were a little more open and you know it was always a yeah it was always a value um and then I I got involved from the zone that I guess propelled me to really you know believe in myself see that I have what to give I have what it takes I could do this could really make a difference just like everyone watching you could get it to me it's really not difficult we'll talk about this soon but really not challenging everyone could do it you just need to have that passion um and that desire and so I got involved with baa actually another local care of organization uh for a couple years nowal in Lakewood local to Tri-State and a little bit beyond too but the coordinator there reached out to me and she said Ura gave us a call that they were looking for someone with specific I guess who's a little more mature for specific uh junior tour mate who's looking for a specific she has a specific challenge she's in a public school her mom called Ura um this is an amazing story her mom called Ura I don't even know how she got connected to Ura I'm curious to hear this afterwards maybe I'll find out maybe you you guys could find out for me but the mom called Ur and a frenzy my daughter's in public school I don't know anything but I know that she has these friends who um are not Jewish are of other faiths and I know that she's coming close with them and she's learning all about their religion and she's I don't know how to guide her in Judaism I don't know anything about Judaism but I just know this isn't correct like this is not okay and I'm I'm very concerned so how how old was this kid so she's 14 my so this is my tourmate when I heard that story I said okay not not not this is something I have to take this is not a not an option not an option and so I um right away said okay I could do this happened to be a moment in my life where I had a few you know I was able to accommodate the 20 minutes to learn with the Tori I think everyone could do it it's really something if you fit into your schedule you could do it and so that's how I got started incredible absolutely incredible that is that is very nice and and what was it like for you I'm saying you sound like you're talking about someone who was already being uh you know had some questions maybe and wasn't so sure was that like scary for you did you have to take a theology course or something and learn good question so actually Ura has always been there to support me I have an amazing coordinator Sarah man shout out she's fantastic okay and she knows everything she knows she has all the answers she cuz she doesn't just bump you up the line you know that would be like oh oh I don't know but we'll ask somebody else and then it all really comes back to Rabbi Mintz right so what she did was actually she as a coordinator she gave me the contact information introduced me gave me some background information that I didn't yet get um and she actually spoke with the RV I guess in the Ura office and said like how do we support her with this specific case wow and so what they did was she gave me the number of uh specific RV in Lakewood who has a lot of expertise with this who and RAB blumthal sure and we actually spoke and he sort of just gave me a conversation of here's what to look out for if this comes up here's what you know how you approach things here's the hashkafa why you know just how to respond or how to just for yourself strengthen yourself so you know going into it what's in that's amazing incredible thank you so much for joining us it's amazing how much like work goes into setting these things up every every terate and there's 6,000 of say they don't just like put a okay you learn with them and let's like shoot from the hip make some stuff up and figure out

tremendous all the viewers you should continue to have continue other people to to do it you seem very uh you seem very confident in the in the whole thing and I imagine that your Torah mate is very lucky and I'm sure that there's other uh I'm sure we always need more Torah mates uh here at Ura we have more people looking for people to learn with than we have kusus to give them which is which is

want sign up for the five minutes slots okay now I want to tell you something we have this amazing uh this amazing uh little program here um it's a heartwarming feature because uh from 9 to 99 it features as a a video we're going to show you now all those uh listening and watching at home it features both the oldest and youngest Torah mates in our program Torah mates proves that Torah is for everyone no matter your age Through The Eyes of a 9-year-old boy from Kens and a 99-year-old woman from the Bronx because from 9 to 99 Torah mates and Torah is from is for everyone take a watch do you think that there's an age that a person should stop learning or no I think it's I think there's no limit to learning you should just keep learning and when you're old you can pass more information to your grandson my name is rapael and I'm 9 years old my name is Evelyn birdie I was born in the Bronx New York I go to public school PS1 73 I wear a keepo to school because I really feel like I want to stand out when I was growing up it wasn't considered necessary for girls to go to school to learn their British kind [Music] the most precious gift we were given when we were born was the [Music] Torah so how did you get involved with Ura and start learning with your tour so my mom was also in tour mides I decided to join her my daughter is involved with Laur she was teaching a lady and I said maybe there's somebody available who could teach me and it's been a delight for me Yak is a good man he's very patient usually other people would like maybe stop me in the middle of the sentence and rephrase he does it at the end what do you learn together with your toury we spend the time together half studying the par of the week and half answering my questions I sometimes learn para and then we read a book that he gave me which para would you say is your favorite oh gee that's like saying what what is like ice cream better than chocolate I like all of the pasas cuz they're very interesting how would you say the learning with your Tor mate helps you Jette makes like D more meaningful I started with M there were words that I didn't know and she helped me translate when you know what you're saying you feel closer it isn't just a formality I feel like it's like another different school that I'm going to and I feel very educated and proud how do you keep that thirst for learning so so strong I think that's a blessing that comes straight from Hashem I just like to keep learning and surprise myself if you can say anything to Ura what would you say to them a person that doesn't know a lot of Torah can and another person that does they both get the Mitzvah because one person gets a Mitzvah of teaching and another gets a Mitzvah of learning it's a midst for that they're performing without [Music] measure it's bringing understanding and therefore Joy To Life Torah helps you learn and basically is your Guide to Life [Music] wow that was uh that was really touching bar I mean to see something like that and the way Ura does these things uh welcome back everyone to uron 2024 call now 18777 auction or online at Ura auction.org to donate now to help keep
