Yeshiva University High Schools Plans Annual Dinner of Tribute

Honorees include Gila and Dovid Weinstein of Teaneck.

Yeshiva University High Schools will present their annual Dinner of Tribute on Wednesday, January 3, at Marina del Rey in the Bronx, New York. This year’s guests of honor are Amy and Michael Berger ’86YUHS at Samuel H. Wang Yeshiva University High School for Girls (YUHSG) and Gila and Dovid Weinstein ’86YUHS at The Marsha Stern Talmudical Academy/Yeshiva University High School for Boys (YUHSB). Mrs. Miriam Chopp of YUHSG will be presented with the Ethel Dworetsky Morrow, z”l, Faculty Award, and Rabbi Rafi Pearl will receive the Faculty Award from YUHSB.

Special tribute will also be paid to past chairs of the Yeshiva University High Schools Joint Board of Trustees: Mr. Jack Bendheim, Mr. Elliot Gibber, Dr. Felix Glaubach, Mr. Henry Rothman, Mr. Irwin Shapiro and Dr. Edith Zwillenberg, z”l.

The theme of this year’s dinner is “What’s Next” as the YUHS community explores the future of experiential programming and 21st-century skills and learning. The evening will recognize this integral value of YUHS, celebrate the accomplishments of students in these arenas and look ahead toward new and exciting opportunities for YU High Schools’ growth.

The Weinsteins, of Teaneck, are active members of Congregation Bnai Yeshurun, where Dovid has served on the executive board and is involved in numerous capacities. Gila runs the popular i-Shine Teaneck program, an afterschool service for children living with illness or loss in their homes. As a principal at Lincoln Equities Group, Dovid is a key member of the group’s management team and is involved in major acquisitions, development and property management decisions. They have five sons: Shaya ’09YUHS, Shmoozie ’10YUHS, Eli ’13YUHS, Shuki ’15YUHS and Chaim ’18YUHS.

“Dovid and Gila Weinstein are very deserving honorees,” said Rabbi Joshua Kahn, head of school at YUHSB. “Their commitment to Talmud Torah and religious development has been instilled in each of their boys who embrace these values and are all leaders in our school community.”
