Seminary girls mobilized for the yeshiva students and raised over 10 million shekels

Thousands of ultra-Orthodox seminary girls raised over ten million shekels in the "For Your Torah" campaign of the Olam HaTorah Fund in less than three hours. Each student was given a personal target of 8,400 shekels, defined as the annual cost of supporting a yeshiva student. The campaign aims to fill budget gaps following the cessation of government funding amid the conscription law crisis.

Thousands of ultra-Orthodox seminary girls mobilized today (Wednesday) for the "For Your Torah" campaign of the "Olam HaTorah Fund," and succeeded in raising over ten million shekels for yeshiva students and kollel scholars in less than three hours. The students set up fundraising centers, worked diligently, and called family members, relatives, and acquaintances to enlist them in the effort. Even before the official launch of the campaign, the girls had already raised about five million shekels. Each student was assigned a personal target of 8,400 shekels—an amount defined as the annual cost of supporting a yeshiva student or kollel scholar. They are trying to meet this target by raising donations from their close circles. The campaign was launched amid the cessation of government budgets and sanctions imposed due to the conscription law crisis and the legal status of tens of thousands of Torah learners. The fund's goal is to fill the gaps created in the coffers of yeshivas and kollels and enable their continued operation.
