Momentum builds, excitement is high, and preparations are in full-swing for Acheinu’s annual Summer BBQ! Tonight, the Flatbush community will gather at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Simcha Applegrad, for an evening of entertainment, gourmet food, and of course, appreciation and support for Acheinu’s dedicated work.  
Acheinu – the Kiruv Movement to develop B’nei Torah – continues to reach out to our brethren in Eretz Yisrael who have not had the opportunity to have an authentic Torah education. And, using Acheinu’s unique, tailor-made approach to kiruv, Acheinu’s avreichim and supporters have reaped unprecedented results in their mission to return unaffiliated Jews to their faith.

If the employment rate of ultra-Orthodox Jewish men remains at a standstill, it will cost the Israeli market more than $100 billion a year within the next several decades, according to Israel’s Ministry of Finance.
The data was presented last week by Assaf Wasserzug, the deputy head of the budget division at the ministry, at a conference held by Jerusalem-based independent research center the Israel Democracy Institute. The conference was focused on the controversial Charedi Draft bill, years in the making, that would see the mandatory military enlistment of ultra-Orthodox men.

As previously reported on Matzav.com, the Lakewood, NJ School District has filed a federal lawsuit against state officials after they failed to approve a proposed $30 million aid increase to the district and instead issued a loan.
The lawsuit, which names the New Jersey State Legislature, State Senate President Steve Sweeny, Assembly Speaker Craig Coughlin, the NJ Department of Education, and NJ Education Commissioner Lamont O. Repollet as defendants, claims that they illegally discriminated against minorities when they failed to supply the needed aid.
“Lakewood’s student population consists almost entirely of minority students,” the lawsuit reads. “86.1% of Lakewood’s students are Hispanic, 7.2% are Black, 5.6% are White, and 1.2% are other.”
