Review for Partners in Torah, Passaic, NJ, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

My experience with Partners in Torah began more than a decade ago. I went to a PIT Tuesday night learning session not knowing what to expect. There was a room full adults - more than 20 pairs - learning various topics, all related to Judaism. What stands out in my mind is a middle aged woman learning the Aleph Beis with Aleph Beis blocks. Incredible how eager and determined she was to learn the Aleph Beis. While I have had several partners, the one I cherish the most is my current study partner. Larry and I started learning together in February 1999 over the phone, and we maintain a weekly learning session on Saturday nights, immediately following the conclusion of Shabbos. Yes, it’s been more than 10 glorious years of Torah study. When I started learning with Larry, he was not completely Sabbath observant and wasn’t davening or putting on Tefillin on a daily basis. Through his hard work and determination, he has blossomed and grown into a respectable ben Torah, with a lovely wife and 2 beautiful children. His home personifies Torah and service of Hashem in every way. This is what Partners in Torah is all about.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

My learning partner began as non-observant Jew and is now a respectable Ben Torah.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

Contributing to the growth of Klal Yisraoel and torah observance.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

All were polite, helpful, and knowledgeable in the task at hand.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

Reach out to many many more individuals and bring many many more back to the service of Hashem.
