Over the past year, young families of Bnei Torah have flocked to the fledgling neighborhood of Holly Oaks in Manchester, NJ. Many were simply motivated by the rising costs of housing in Lakewood, but together they established a new place to raise their families with תורה'דיגע values. Situated right off Route 70, about a six-minute drive from Seagull Square, the neighborhood is "close enough" to Lakewood, yet far enough to be self-contained. A quiet, picturesque area, through-traffic is virtually non-existent and sidewalks are sparse.
In November 2020, a makeshift shul was set up in a shed in a resident's backyard. Originally able to accommodate 38 seats, it was quickly apparent that this location was woefully inadequate, as the neighborhood was rocked by an exponential growth rate.
Now, we have reached a point where our shul can no longer fit all of the mispallelim. We have בע"ה found a new location which can accommodate our needs, but we need $250,000 to make it a reality. Considering the fact that the closest shul is nearly 2 miles away, our goal is to build a bustling Makom Torah to service the entire area. Please help make our dream a reality! Become a partner today.
