Jacob Frydman – Contributes $180,000 in Support of NCFJE’s Work in Jewish Communities

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / May 2, 2017 / Recognized real estate expert Jacob Frydman has recently emerged as an active advocate of the NCFJE and its philanthropic mission of advancing the Jewish community of New York. Frydman was Guest of Honor at the organization’s 76th Annual Awards Dinner, which took place on November 20th, 2016 at the Edison Hotel Ballroom in Manhattan, and lent enthusiastic support to the organization’s work in the Jewish community. The real estate mogul, a frequent guest on major news networks, punctuated his enthusiastic support of the NCFJE with a pledge of $180,000. The room was electrified by Frydman’s announcement and his commitment to charity, philanthropy, and kindness.

In a recorded statement, Jacob Frydman praised the organization’s flagship Jewish Released Time Program, which sends hundreds of volunteers across metropolitan New York to teach Jewish public school students. “Find me another organization that mobilizes, literally, an army of young men and women… to engage Jewish children all over metro New York, week after week…” He also praised the Machon LeYahadus, the organization’s advanced Jewish Studies program for women, which he called “forward thinking” and “ground breaking.” “The National Committee was decades ahead of the rest of the Jewish world, to recognize that there were young ladies, and many of them… thirsting for that knowledge.”

NCFJE Chairman, Rabbi Shea Hecht said: “We really could not be more happy with our relationship with Mr. Frydman. He has shown a real concern for the welfare of the community at large, and is the kind of guy that really wants to help. You would think that someone involved with such massive projects is very removed from the concerns of the community, but Jacob is not like that at all. He is just an incredibly warm and loving person. I’m really impressed with him.”

“I’m the kind of guy – I do things right, I do things with impact, or I don’t do them,” said Jacob Frydman, “I feel very fortunate to have discovered an organization that shares my approach.”

NCFJE was founded in 1941 by the Previous Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchok Schneersohn to teach Torah to public school students through the Jewish Released Time Program. The organization is responsible for running 37 separate social, religious and educational programs, including Jewish Summer Camps, TOYS for Hospitalized Children, Food Pantry in Brooklyn, Anti Shmad, ILTSF (formerly known as ILTSE), and Operation Survival. In recent years, the organization has turned its focus upon the economically disadvantaged families in its home community of Crown Heights.
