After nearly a year of planning, a Learning and Networking program called Torah V’avoda Networking Kollel has launched today. The program, created for those recently out of a job, or those leaving Kollel, will feature a Learning Seder with R’ Yaakov (Jeff) Tzvi Rubin, followed by various networking programs affiliated with Mesila, PCS and LCCR.
The Learning program will begin at 4:00 p.m. and the networking program at 6:00 p.m.
Besides the regular programs, which includes computer rooms for use by all, the program will feature seminars twice a week.
“We put together a solid board”, says Duvi Honig, the founder of the program. “The body includes business consultants from multiple organizations who are highly involved in assisting people finding jobs” he said.
“Another advantage is, people can socialize and network on their own, especially people with business skills but no education, can start their own Parnasa being guided through networking”
The program is also intended for those shifting from Kollel to the work field and can’t keep a Yeshiva schedule.
“They would have access to the networking and still be able to have a seder at the end of the day”, says Honig.
“I believe that by bringing talent together, the sky is the limit what can be achieved”.
The program is located in the new Chavrei Hakollel building, 911 Somerset Avenue.

when? and where?
this is good. they need to do more for people who are transitioning from kollel to the working world…
Wishing the Rosh Kollel R` Yosef Zimball much hatzlocha on this endeavor!
I`m so happy to be a part or this wonderful program! It has been a year of hard work preparing for “Torah Veavodah Networking Kollel”but kudos to Rabbi Greenwald, Rabbi Karp, Rabbi Greenspoun and Rabbi Ghoory for getting this off the ground!
Keep it up.
I am very impressed with R’ Simcha Greenwald. When you see him he seems like a very unassuming individual. You would never imagine that he is the type to accomplish all this.
He gives his entire life for his mosad and would do anything for a friend.
What a mench!
Keep up the great work, there is no place like the kollel!
Rabbi Honig knows how to make things happen. He’s a man of action. Beautiful program to be able to assist the klan in pursuing their learning & career. Hatzlacha Duvy! We have faith it will be a smashing success i’h!
Kudos to Simcha!!!
when is this starting?
Wow can I get a job at Chaveri Hakolel? The building looks real nice in the picture.
kudos to R’ moshe Oiknine aswell!
