The Mendel Balk Yachad Community Center kicked off the programming year at its opening event on Wednesday, October 3. Yachad participants and their friends from all over New Jersey attended, enjoying a delicious barbecue dinner, generously hosted by the Berman Family. Tamar Berman, a junior at Maayanot High School, has been involved with the Yachad Center since it opened in 2017. Students from many local schools joined, including Bruriah, Frisch, Ma’ayanot, Na’aleh, RYNJ, Sinai and Yeshivat Noam. It is very special to see the community come together and welcome new participants.
