Heralding the Next Generation Yeshiva
For over 14 years Orchos Chaim's distinctive programs and special attention we pay each student (ba'al-teshuva or not) has given them an opportunity to fully integrate while in yeshiva thereby preparing them for absorption into the community. Our job however does not end there; the roshei yeshiva and rabbeim at Orchos Chaim dedicate significant time and resources to our alumni's needs many years beyond the completion of their studies.
Our one-of-a-kind Binyan Olam Fellowship program is something of which we are particularly proud. Designed for recently married couples who want to build a spiritual foundation that will carry them through life, the Fellowship offers an opportunity to spend a year of learning and growing in Israel. The program combines the traditional intensive yeshiva learning with classes for both husbands and wives in the theory, hashkafa, and practice of building a bayit neeman b'Yisrael - a home that will start out, and continue on a path of positive growth.
