Boca Raton Kollel

Another Stone in the foundation of the Jewish community of Boca Raton.

The Boca Raton Kollel is a place of full-time Torah study, which facilitates continued growth in our Kollel rabbis and further uplifts the community through increased Torah learning opportunities. We welcome your interest and participation as, together, we add more Torah learning to our lives.

WHO ARE WE?

The Boca Raton Kollel is a full-time kollel which is focused on advancing Torah study. A kollel is an integral part of any Jewish community, and we seek to add to the beautiful atmosphere of growth in Torah that characterizes Jewish Boca Raton.

The Kollel rabbis hail from Yeshivas Chofetz Chaim, and Rabbi May consulted with the Roshei Yeshiva of Chofetz Chaim for guidance when forming the kollel. Rabbi May also received guidance from Rabbi Aaron Kotler and Rabbi Sroy Levitansky of Beth Medrash Govoha. The Kollel joins the greater Boca Raton Jewish infrastructure with the positive reception of Boca Raton rabbanim and enthusiasm from lay leaders and community members.

What THEY’RE SAYING

The Mishnah has taught us: “Marbeh Torah, marbeh chaim – the more Torah, the more life.” The establishment of the Kollel brings a new level of Torah study to our community, and with that, a horizon full of blessings beyond our imagination. Rabbi Eliyahu Rabovsky, rabbi of the Young Israel of Boca Raton.

We are very excited to welcome the new kollel and know it will complement and expand on the wonderful kol Torah that currently exists in our greater Boca Raton community. Rabbi Efrem Goldberg, senior rabbi of Boca Raton Synagogue

[We] celebrate this extraordinary milestone in the furtherance of high-level Torah learning. I am confident that under the leadership of Rabbi Dovid May, the Kollel will bring tremendous kavod shomayim, and will be a great source of inspiration to all.Rabbi Yaakov Gibber, rabbi of the Boca Jewish Center

I have only been in Boca for one year, but I have seen the community grow exponentially in that short time. I believe it is the natural progression of growth for the Boca community to have a kollel where people of all ages and learning capabilities can come together to learn and grow in our avodas Hashem.Mr. Benjy Gluck, a father of a young family
