Eretz Yisrael Yidden is a collection of organizations, businesses and events united by one shared goal: making Eretz Yisrael the best place in the world to raise a thriving frum family.
Eretz Yisrael Yidden, EYY for short, is not a head office and it is not a membership. It is a name that a growing set of institutions, business owners and volunteers work under, most of them in Beit Shemesh and Ramat Beit Shemesh.
Each part runs independently, with its own leadership and its own work. What they share is a set of beliefs, a habit of showing up for each other, and the conviction that Eretz Yisrael is where Klal Yisrael is meant to be building.
Some of that work is learning, some of it is a high school basketball league, and some of it is a night out for every family that made Aliyah this year. From the outside it looks like separate things. From the inside it is one project.
What we believe
Everything under the EYY name comes back to these 3 things.
We believe Eretz Yisrael has the potential to be the best place in the world for every single Jewish family to live, grow and thrive. And we believe it is our responsibility to partner with HaKadosh Baruch Hu in turning that potential into a reality for our families, our communities and all of Klal Yisrael.
There are no teams in Judaism, and there are certainly no teams in Eretz Yisrael. What unites us is far greater than what divides us. Everything we do is built around our shared values, our shared destiny and our commitment to Klal Yisrael, not labels, camps or affiliations.
We believe that every Yid has the infinite potential to achieve greatness in the eyes of Hashem, and an undeniable, irrevocable and irreplaceable role to play in the collective mission of Klal Yisrael in this world.
That greatness will not look the same for everyone. Each of us was given a God-given mission that is uniquely ours, a piece of the collective responsibility of Klal Yisrael that no one else can fulfill in quite the same way.
Our responsibility is to discover our own role, embrace it and fulfill it. And to recognize, encourage and support one another in discovering and fulfilling theirs.
The institutions inside EYY: a high school yeshiva for Anglo teens, a morning kollel and a high school basketball league, each running on its own.
