Yeshiva Kollel Shavey Shomron,

Building Campaign:  Adding needed classroom and office space.

Nestled in the beautiful Northern Shomron under the shadows of Har Eival and Har Gerizim one of the most decisive and dramatic points in Jewish history stands Yeshiva Kollel Shavey Shomron.  Bordered by the ancient city of Shechem to the east and the historic Northern Kingdom city of Sebastia to the north Yeshiva Kollel spiritual setting gives inspiration and insight into everyday learning in the yeshiva. 

In 1997, Rabbi Yehoshua Mordachi Shmidt, shlita, with full blessing and encouragement from Gaon Rabbi Dov Lior, moved with his family from Kiryat Arba to Shavey Shomron to become Rosh Kollel.  Just two years later, in 1999, with full endorsement from rabbinical counsel, Rabbi Schmidt established Yeshiva Kollel, founding the first yeshiva in the northern Shomron. 

Today, Yeshiva Kollel is an active yeshiva participating in the IDF's pre- and post- army programs, training rabbis, and teaching students from varying backgrounds and countries.   Many of our students, after finishing their formal studies, have continued to make Torah not only their way of life but also their life's occupation.  Baruch HaShem, we now have former students serving in teaching and rabbinic positions both in the civilian and military sectors.  Others have gone on to serve in hi-tech, security and building industries, bringing with them the values of Torah learned in Yeshiva Kollel.

A primary objective of Yeshiva Kollel is for students to leave equipped strong in Torah, halacha, middos, and a love for the land of Israel.   We strongly desire that our students, even after completion of formal studies, continue to toil in the Torah bringing it's values and teachings to their home, place of work, and every area of life. 

Yeshiva Kollel is in urgent need of classroom space.  The yeshiva does not have separate classroom space for the daily lectures.  All the lectures are held in the Beit Midrash.  During the course of the day, there are several lectures being given at any one time which is not a conducive learning environment.  We have started the first phase of building classrooms which included replacing the metal roof with a cement one and additional  bathrooms.  Once this first phase is completed we can build-up adding a second floor to the Beit Midrash which will be used for classrooms and some office space.   Baruch HaShem funds have been donated to the first phase but we are still in need of large funds to complete the second phase.
