A zechus for our chayalim and the safe return of the hostages
January 9th, 2024 marked a momentous occasion at HTC as alumni and friends gathered for the HTC101 Gala, celebrating 101 years of dedication to Jewish education and to the community. In an extraordinary display of unity and faith, one highlight of the evening was the completion of Shas as a zechus for the safety and wellbeing of our chayalim and the safe return of the hostages.
Rabbi Shmuel L. Schuman, CEO of HTC, expressed the deep connection between learning Torah and the act of prayer for those in need. “Completing the Shas is not only a personal or academic achievement; it’s a spiritual undertaking. By dedicating this accomplishment to our chayalim and the hostages, we are sending a powerful message of hope, strength, and community solidarity."
The event was also marked by heartfelt speeches and tributes, including the honoring of Rabbi Chaim Twerski for his over 40 years of Harbatzas HaTorah. The night was a blend of celebration, remembrance, and forward-looking aspirations, embodying the essence of HTC’s mission to foster a community rooted in Torah values while actively engaging with and supporting the wider Jewish community.
HTC thanks the following rebbeim, students, alumni, and friends for completing Shas together as a zechus for our chayalim and the safe return of the hostages in Eretz Yisrael:
