Okay, no, you don’t. You’re way too busy to spare that time, and we get that. But what if we told you that with just a half hour a week, you could add an incredible amount of meaning to your day?
TorahMates, is a free Jewish learning program with personal study partners. It’s a program boasting thousands of happy participants. (And for those in need of some extra encouragement, all volunteers who sign up between April 15 and July 31, 2021 will be entered into a raffle to win a free trip to Israel.)
By design, this Jewish study partner system is geared to fit anyone and everyone. Oorah’s talented and dedicated TorahMate coordinators spend hours each day speaking with volunteers and applicants alike, first creating and then overseeing partnerships. They are there for you throughout the process, guiding participants towards a meaningful and worthwhile relationship.
And considering the investment of just a half hour a week, the reward and dividends are immeasurable. “I feel privileged to be a part of this,” Daniel relates. “There’s nothing like knowing you are making a real difference in your life.”
Men and women just like you make time for this special project in their life, and they couldn’t be more grateful that they did. The questions are stimulating, the conversation is easy, and the reward is inestimable. “I have two TorahMates. I have gained a dear friend. And I am inspired to be a better person,” Sara says.
In a half hour, you can learn, share, and build upon your knowledge. “It isn’t like learning in school,” Mrs. Silky Pitterman says. “I understand things in a totally different way.”
