A YESHIVA WITH A HEART “United Lubavitch Yeshiva is a Yeshiva with a heart. My son Yehoshua struggles with ADHD and I had a very hard time finding a good yeshiva for him. So many yeshivos just slammed the door in our faces. But the United Lubavitch Yeshiva opened their door and their hearts. Even the fact that we could not pay full tuition was not an issue. They were patient with Yehoshua when he sometimes acted up. Boruch Hashem Yehoshua has now settled down and is flourishing. I have so much nachas from him. Hashem should bless Rabbi Dechter and all the staff members of ULYOP. This yeshiva is really worthy of your support, as they truly work L’Shem Shomayim understanding that every child is a neshomah of the Aibishter.” - A grateful parent. 31

Dear Rabbi Dechter, When it came time to register our first son, all the Yeshiva Principals informed us that their Pre-1A classes were full. However, many of our friends were able to register their sons after we were declined. We then realized that registration in other schools was full for those who can’t pay full tuition. We then came to you. You tested our son and accepted him, and only then were we told to discuss tuition with the Committee. In all honesty, we were afraid of what would happen; however, Rabbi Fogelman dealt with us in a firm but understanding manner. Our son loves Rabbi Eidelman and loves to go to Yeshiva every day. In simple words in ULYOP the child’s needs are first and foremost. Thank you,

Eliezer & Chani

My dear friends, need I say more? The Rebbe guides us in the way of Chazal that the Torah is the inheritance of every Jewish child – yes, even those whose parents are undergoing financial hardships and cannot pay proper tuition. We will not turn a deserving child away because of it. However, this causes undue hardship for our excellent and devoted staff of dedicated and car-

ing melamdim, morahs and teachers. There are too many weeks that we cannot cover the payroll,

We ask you today to please join in our drive and become a Sustaining Member. Choose the amount that you can help us with on a yearly, monthly or weekly basis. There are so many Jewish children here in Brooklyn who are counting on you.
