Congregation Zichron Binyamin was founded in 1998 to serve the growing Sephardic populationin Lakewood. Within a year the original group of twelve had grown tremendously, with ZichronBinyamin hosting a morning and evening kollel.

The success of the kollel soon inspired its founder to dream of something more daring:Lakewoods first full-time Sephardic kollel.

Why the need for such an institution in Lakewood, a city full of talmidei chachamim and kollelfamilies?

Rabbi Bitton saw the potential to groom a small group of elite kollel members of sephardiclineage into outstanding talmidei chachamim and yirei shamayim.

These young men would be the nucleus of an institution that would exert a far reachinginfluence on the broader torah community.

The young kollel scholars would one day take the helm of leadership as tomorrows rosheiyeshivot, rabbanim and teachers, able to transmit our torah with our precious heritage to thenext generation.

Kollel Ohel Rachel, named in memory of Rachel bat Shulamit Haber AH, became the jewel inthe crown of Lakewoods sephardic community. Starting with a core of 12 avreichim in 2002, thekollel went on become a magnet for some of the most talented sephardic bnei torah. Ouralumni have gone onto many prestigious positions in the torah world in Lakewood, Brooklyn,and beyond.

Today, Purim Katan, the kollel was given the challenge by a group of generous benefactors toraise $600,000 within the next 24 hours ending tomorrow Wednesday at 1 PM. Every dollarraised will be matched three times. 100 dollars becomes 400, 500 becomes 2000, and 1000becomes 4000! The catch is if we dont reach our goal, we dont get anything! Its all or nothing!

Please help us reach our goal!
