oorah , or sometimes oorah kiruv rechokim , hebrew for " awaken and bring in those who are far " ( a reference to educating non-observant jews ) , is an incorporated orthodox jewish kiruv ( outreach ) organization founded in 1980 " with the goal of awakening jewish children and their families to their heritage . "

it is a united states based 501 ( c ) 3 non-profit organization .

oorah ( organization )

and memorable campaigns for any jewish organization are no doubt those produced by and for oorah . but who are the people behind oorah ? do you ever wonder ?
independent - the organization is an independent organization or an independent auxiliary ( i . e . , not affiliated with a national , regional , or geographic grouping of organizations ) .
oorah staten island is a program of the larger oorah organization . oorah’s various programs and events enrich the lives of jewish families throughout the us with meaning and values . and staten island is where it all began .
non - jewish workers shorted weeks of pay . haredi outreach organization oorah claims contactors owe workers the money , but oorah also admits to owing those contactors at least $ 30 , 000 .

due to an error on this organization ' s form 990 , we are unable to display program information .
haredi kiruv organization and its bogus subsidiary for ' at risk ' youth are again linked to shady dealings .
the group ' s board of directors does not provide adequate oversight of the charity ' s organization and staff .
oorah owns cucumber communications , and claims that
every penny
of profit goes to oorah ' s activities .
if you donate to an organization called kars4kids , it ' s a huge red flag that the money isn ' t going to an organization with that name ,
said lindsey nichols , spokesperson for guidestar , a national charity information websites .
haredi missionary organization under investigation for not paying workers hired to remodel its boys camp . oorah claims a subcontractor is the true employer but it also admits it owes that subcontractor money .
we should commend oorah for establishing an organization of this magnitude which sustains itself by maintaining a high level of professionalism and fundraising , permitting it to exist on small donations through grassroots efforts .
where does the money go ? ninety percent of the monies donated go to a sister organization , oorah , a new jersey - based charity that operates jewish youth summer camps in new york .
the attorney general’s report also highlighted the relationship between kars4kids and oorah . as our website clearly states , much of our charitable programming is done in conjunction with our sister charity oorah , also a nationally recognized jewish nonprofit organization . oorah’s programs include mentorship and youth programs , school placement and tuition assistance , summer camp , holiday and family events .
oorah declined to respond directly to these allegations while litigation is pending . however , in court documents the organization’s attorney , israel vider , argued that congregation oorah is operating as a religious corporation by running educational programming at the synagogue . oorah runs a preschool and kindergarten in the building , as well as weekly religious programming for adults and teens .
since its humble beginning , oorah developed into a multifaceted nonprofit organization offering social , educational , and religious services to thousands of families throughout the world . oorah’s dozens of programs have broadened rabbi chaim mintz’s impact , continuing each year to carry out his vision with care and dedication .
little star is a project of oorah , a non - profit organization serving the jewish community for more than three decades . oorah was established by rabbi chaim mintz , a pioneer in jewish education and outreach who continues to oversee oorah’s many important and highly regarded programs . oorah cares for men , women , and children of all jewish backgrounds and affiliations , providing for the physical , emotional , and educational needs of our community .
we should recognize how unique , in our age of hype and self - promotion , is the kind of avodas hakdoesh performed under the radar that defines this organization . hiding under our noses in plain sight is a remarkable organization that is bringing thousands of men , women and children tachas kanfei hashechinah .
oorah’s public image couldn’t be farther from the truth . a successful educational and outreach group , the only area in which this organization is lacking , ironically , is public relations . they spend considerable amounts on marketing strategies but forget to include an important piece of the picture : who are the individuals behind this unusual organization ? what are they doing when they aren’t playing fiveish ?
the lakewood , nj - based kars4kids is a front for joy for our youth , which itself is a front for oorah , a haredi missionary organization . the saint louis post dispatch reports on the deceptive advertising used by kars - for - kids , and the questionable business practices of oorah :
the trial portion of the jewish foundation school / rabbi joseph jacob orthodox day school ' s federal lawsuit against haredi kiruv organization oorah is ended today in brooklyn with a victory for rjj . rjj – which previously won a beit din decision that oorah ignored – sued oorah for almost $ 400 , 000 in back tuition the beit din ruled oorah owes for non - orthodox students it entolled in rjj by promising students ' families free tuition .
will oorah lose its irs 501 ( c ) ( 3 ) status ? will oorah ' s board be prosecuted ? only time will tell .
again , j . o . y . gifts all of its money to oorah . oorah is a sectarian missionary organization whose sole declared purpose according to it ' s irs filings is
kiruv ,
jewish religious outreach , and related educational scholarships to orthodox jewish schools . and oorah gives less than 38 % of its income to those causes and shows extremely high expenses .
kars4kids , they learned , is the primary funder of a new jersey organization called oorah inc . that provides religious - based services to orthodox jewish children . kars4kids paid $ 65 , 000 in fines in each state in 2009 .

over the last few days we have been examining a series of articles on kars4kids and oorah , inc . and the potentially fraudulent activities of both organizations . we had been going on a working theory that the entire organization was one big ponzi scheme .

oorah sent the above e - mail to its list today . note what it says :
young israel congregants accuse the nonprofit oorah of using synagogue to hide ‘questionable financial dealings . ’
young israel’s attorney , solomon rubin , calls oorah’s claims “identity theft” and argued that enforcing the $ 1 million arbitration award would amount to the court “assisting” oorah in this alleged fraud .
plaintiff oorah , inc . (
oorah
) , a nonprofit organization , brought this action against marvin schick , the jewish foundation school (
jfs
) and the rabbi jacob joseph school (
rjj
) ( collectively , the
school
) seeking to enforce an alleged non - disparagement agreement . the school counterclaimed , arguing that oorah had breached an agreement to pay a set tuition over a certain number of years for students it enrolled and , in the alternative , that oorah was unjustly enriched at the school ' s expense . 1
in a years - long dispute between a small staten - island synagogue and the charedi outreach organization best known for its operation of kars4kids , a court ruled this week in favor of the synagogue .
low wage workers brought from lakewood , new jersey to oorah ' s camp in upsate new york in 2010 to renovate the camp were not paid for their labor . oorah claimed a subcontractor was responsible for the wages . but oorah also owed that subcontractor a large amount of money .
the young israel of eltingville , a struggling 40 - year - old modern orthodox congregation , is battling oorah inc . , the lakewood , n . j . - based outreach organization that operates kars4kids , for control of the synagogue building . the two entities first locked horns earlier this year after a 2007 agreement to sell the building to oorah went sour . the synagogue is now fighting to overturn an arbitration award from a religious court stipulating that they synagogue owes oorah $ 1 million .

that the kars4kids website is registered to rabbi eliyohu mintz , who also heads up oorah . oorah ' s president is rabbi chaim mintz , a senior official at the yeshiva of staten island .
2 . other evidence of oorah ' s understanding that the debt had been satisfied was admitted . oorah ' s witnesses were allowed to testify that they believed that the dispute between the parties had been settled , and oorah ' s attorney was permitted to reference this understanding in his closing argument .
now , concern over oorah’s application to the irs to attain synagogue status is taking center stage . young israel of eltingville is claiming that oorah inc . formed a separate entity , congregation oorah , to falsely obtain tax - exempt status , thereby allowing oorah to shield potential “questionable financial dealings” from public scrutiny . ( according to irs code , religious congregations do not have to file an annual tax return . )
because the jury found oorah liable for breach of contract , it did not reach the alternative unjust enrichment counterclaim . 3 nevertheless , oorah argues that the unjust enrichment counterclaim should not have been presented to the jury , and that the evidence of oorah ' s assets introduced to support it was unfairly prejudicial .
mintz says kars4kids was not trying to hide anything behind the multiple charities . joy for our youth was the original name of the organization founded in 2000 to support jewish youths . but kars4kids turned out to be catchier .
kars4kids is affiliated with oorah , which currently has a moderate concern cn advisory . for this reason , we have issued a low concern cn advisory on kars4kids . for more information , please see the advisory on oorah and the new york post article that describes the events that led to oorah ' s advisory .
kars4kids and oorah inc . , an affiliated not - for - profit organization , lost $ 5 . 25 million – nearly as much speculating on real estate in 2010 as they spent on programming . oorah , the operation’s program arm , spent only $ 6 . 3 million of the $ 29 million collected by kars4kids on program expenses in 2010 , despite the fact that the organizations hold a combined $ 39 million in assets .
only by drilling down will donors learn
your car donation to kars4kids will benefit joy for our youth , an organization dedicated to addressing the educational , material , and emotional needs of disadvantaged jewish children and their families .

accordingly , oorah ' s motion for judgment as a matter of law or a new trial is denied .
late last year , the matter was complicated by allegations that oorah was using the synagogue as a front to commit tax fraud . young israel of eltingville claimed that oorah inc . formed a separate entity , congregation oorah , to falsely obtain tax - exempt status , thereby allowing oorah to shield potential “questionable financial dealings” from public scrutiny . ( according to irs code , religious congregations do not have to file an annual tax return . )
oorah is the best ! meeting everyone by the torah mates retreat was amazing and the constant support is great .
throughout the years , oorah sponsored jewish summer camp attendance for oorah tuition scholarship recipients . this enabled the children to remain in a positive jewish environment during the summer months . in 2003 , oorah was offered the keys to a functioning jewish summer camp . the camp was a hit with jewish girls from across new york and new jersey .

the deceptive children ' s charity , kars - 4 - kids , which presents itself as nonsectarian , claims it helps
children who were on the streets .
yet the money it raises goes to oorah , a linked organization that , according to the ny post , claims an
80 % success rate
at keeping the children it helps away from goyyim .
the attorney general investigated kars4kids at length and did not see any reason to take legal action against the organization . in fact , the report makes clear that there has never been any question of diversion of funds from the charity . while like any healthy organization - especially one whose revenue stream comes largely from car donations - marketing and advertising is a necessary expense to enable growth , kars4kids’ administrative expenses are low by any standards . our executive salaries are public and show there are no pockets being lined here .
in 2006 , oorah purchased and renovated the former golden acres resort in gilboa , ny creating a fully equipped summer camp with top amenities . in 2009 , oorah purchased the nearby scotch valley resort and created another state of the art camp facility in the former ski resort . oorah now has adequate facilities to service many more jewish girls and boys from across the us , canada and even israel . oorah also sponsors discoveru , a unique program for jewish singles age 18 - 26 .
oorah , the lakewood - based haredi missionary organization whose deceptive advertising practices were exposed by the saint louis post dispatch , distributes less than 38 % * * * of its income to the childrens programs it champions . according to the most recent irs 990 filing available ( download oorah _ 2003 _ irs _ 990 . pdf ) , oorah had gross revenues of almost $ 2 , 000 , 000 yet used only $ 741 , 639 of that revenue for outreach and for underwriting jewish education . almost $ 741 , 000 went to cover expenses and another $ 482 , 000 was held as
assests
and not disbursed .

early on july 10 , ice agents arrested 31 immigrant workers doing construction and maintenance jobs for two subcontractors at a children ' s summer camp in gilboa , new york , just north of the catskill mountains and southwest of albany . the camp is owned by oorah inc . , a jewish nonprofit educational organization . ice spokesperson michael gilhooly said on july 11 that the investigation was continuing .
the catchy jingle advertising kars4kids charity began blanketing radio airwaves across the twin cities around thanksgiving . the ditty ends with :
we ' re a recognized 501 ( c ) ( 3 ) charity organization , so you ' ll receive a maximum tax deduction .
on wednesday , the supreme court of the state of new york granted permission to the young israel of eltingville , a small 40 - year - old modern orthodox congregation , to vacate an arbitration award from a religious court stipulating that the synagogue owes oorah , the lakewood , n . j . - based outreach organization that operates kars4kids , $ 1 million . the arbitration award , had it been enforced , would likely have forced the congregation to foreclose on its building and surrender all of its assets to oorah .

cuomo subpoenaed 16 organizations and individuals , including kars 4 kids ( oorah ) , lechaim for life , and cars that help .
there have been allegations of financial improprieties against oorah and its closely affiliated charity kars4kids in the past . in 2012 , the organization — which runs summer camps and provides scholarships to jewish families — lost a $ 375 , 000 federal lawsuit over scholarship money that oorah allegedly promised ( but never gave ) to students at the jewish foundation school in staten island . in 2009 , the organization paid tens of thousands of dollars in settlements to the state attorneys general of pennsylvania and oregon over its failure to disclose that the funds raised through its vehicle donation program benefited children of a specific religion . in 2010 , the new york state attorney general announced that his office had subpoenaed joy for our youth — the name under which kars4kids is incorporated — as part of a broader investigation into charities that accept car donations .
for years , oorah , and its closely affiliated charity kars4kids , have faced allegations of financial improprieties . in 2012 , the organization — which runs summer camps and provides scholarships to jewish families — lost a $ 375 , 000 federal lawsuit over scholarship money that oorah allegedly promised ( but never gave ) to students at the jewish foundation school in staten island . in 2009 , the organization paid tens of thousands of dollars in settlements to the state attorneys general of pennsylvania and oregon over its failure to disclose that the funds raised through its vehicle donation program benefited children of a specific religion . in 2010 , the new york state attorney general announced that his office had subpoenaed joy for our youth — the name under which kars4kids is incorporated — as part of a broader investigation into charities that accept car donations .
oorah , j . o . y . and kars4kids are all run by rabbis chaim and eliyohu mintz . kars4kids and j . o . y . serve as front - organizations for oorah , allowing oorah to raise money from non - jews and from jews who would not support oorah ' s programs . kars4kids and j . o . y . gets those people to give money to what appears to be a non - sectarian charity that aids children who are really in distress – homeless , abused , abondoned , etc . – but in reality all the money is gifted to oorah for orthodox jewish missionary activity . kars4kids is also using a kirbycard e - mail address . kirby card is owned by cucumber communications which is a totally owned subsidiary of oorah . cucumber claims :
the report is a bit unclear , but what oorah / joy for our youth / kars - 4 - kids did ( and still does to some extent ) is portray their organizations – all controlled by the people who control oorah – as helping all needy kids , when in reality almost all of the money goes to oorah – a haredi missionary outreach organization whose aim is to put non - orthodox jewish kids in haredi yeshiva schools . kars - 4 - kids hides this from the public , uses deceptively designed commericals , and practices what many – including at least two state attorneys general – say is illegal bait - and - switch advertising practices to get donations .
there are so many organizations out there competing for the same charity dollar that in order to have a chance of getting those funds , we have to be able to communicate to potential donors what it is about our organization that sets it apart and makes it worthy of support .
oorah started with a distribution to staten island residents ; shabbat packages to provide residents with a shabbat flavor , and holiday packages to enhance their holiday experiences . oorah expanded with various other programs , such as chillzone weekly learning sessions , thezone summer camp and holiday retreats . staten island acquired torahspot , its own building , with on - site programs and events . when you join the oorah staten island programs , you’ll join the larger oorah family and enjoy all that it has to offer . see a full list of programs .
joy has the same new jersey address and the same principal officer , eliyohu mintz , as another charity , oorah . according to the attorney general in pennsylvania , joy
has contributed substantially all of the funds it has raised to oorah in the past .
oorah , the lakewood , new jersey - based haredi kiruv ( ' outreach , ' missionary ) organization that specializes in convincing non - orthodox jewish families to kids to enroll their kids in haredi yeshivas and day schools , made what was supposed to be a humorous fundraising video that features a haredi comedian , shlomo hadarshan , in blackface playing controversial civil rights activist and msnbc host rev . al sharpton . but the video has now been marked private on youtube , even as a picture of the sharpton blackface character still appears on oorah ' s website .
the 2015 budget for their ads ? seventeen million dollars , according to charitywatch , which is even more than kars4kids gave to oorah .
i am sure that many of you reading this article didn’t know about what i have shared . you probably also didn’t know that at a recent “ shabbat with oorah” family shabbaton , over 600 people attended and enjoyed the blessings of a shabbos together with oorah volunteers .
additionally , as the car donation proceeds get passed along from kars4kids to oorah , oorah itself has fundraising and general administrative costs to pay for , which it does primarily with the grant money it receives from kars4kids . therefore , the proceeds kars4kids generates from car donations get another “hair cut” when they make their way to oorah . fortunately , oorah’s cash - based program spending percentage was 74 % in 2015 , which is above charitywatch’s reasonableness benchmark of 60 % . even with oorah’s very reasonable rate of program spending , though , once oorah’s and kars4kids’ overhead expenses are considered in aggregate , only about 38 % of kars4kids’ donated car proceeds were spent on bona fide programs in 2015 . in other words , based on the average resale value of about $ 365 for a car donated to kars4kids in 2015 , less than $ 139 actually went towards benefitting “kids , ” who , as a reminder , are mostly jewish youth that participate in oorah’s orthodox jewish outreach programs .
according to oorah ' s website ,
oorah , which means ' awaken , ' was founded in 1980 with the goal of awakening jewish children and their families to their heritage .
the site is full of articles , stories and testimonials which seem to imply that the physical and spiritual support and private religious education offered by oorah are intended to persuade secular jewish families to take on a more orthodox jewish lifestyle .

oorah , which means

was founded in 1980 with the goal of awakening jewish children and their families to their heritage .
young israel president max robek said he has never seen members of congregation oorah attend services . courtesy of y . i . of eltingville .
oorah , inc . , plaintiff , v . marvin schick , the jewish foundation school , and the rabbi jacob joseph school , defendant .
at the jury trial on the counterclaims , the school maintained that oorah had breached a contract to make tuition payments for the 2007 - 2009 school years and , in the alternative , that oorah had been unjustly enriched by using its philanthropic relationship with the school to solicit donations .
we did not want to throw anything out there that might otherwise implicate an organization in untoward activity without a wee bit more information . today we received a letter which was sent from the “public relations director” of urltoken to their employees and friends . while we cannot attest to the providence of the letter , we can state fairly unequivocally that in our view it represents an effort on the part of oorah to control the damage of recent press .
the last time i was in eretz yisroel , i bumped into rabbi mintz . he told me that he was in yerushalayim to check up on oorah’s post - yeshiva program which helps oorah - sponsored students through their yeshiva years as they learn in israel . i had no clue that rabbi mintz maintains a satellite oorah office in israel with a full - time staff and volunteers who arrange trips and shabbatons , and offer their talmidim regular home - away - from - home counseling and guidance . that is the degree to which oorah views its responsibility to bnei ub’nos yisroel .
the court determined that oorah ' s claim would be tried separately from the school ' s counterclaims , the former in a bench trial and the latter before a jury . a three - day jury trial on the counterclaims commenced on january 9 , 2012 , and oorah was found liable for breach of contract in the amount of $ 357 , 100 . a bench trial on oorah ' s claim was held on march 12 , 2012 . after hearing limited testimony , the court determined that no binding non - disparagement agreement existed and the equitable relief oorah sought was improper .
joy ' s 2003 tax filing with the irs - the most recent available - reports that its only only grant that year , for $ 207 , 000 , was made to a nonprofit group called oorah inc . tax records for both joy and oorah list the same new jersey address .
at first blush , jefferson township ' s attempt to block tax free status for oorah ' s kids camp seems unjust and doomed to failure . but that may only be at first blush . a deeper look may favor jefferson township ' s claim that oorah is not a true charity .
oorah simultaneously drafted a similar note to the arbitrators . at the bench trial , counsel explained that , based on this note , oorah was seeking to enjoin the school from disparaging or making false statements about oorah . bench trial tr . at 12 - 13 . the court found that no enforceable non - disparagement agreement was in place and , even if it were , it could not merely enjoin the school from engaging in libel or slander .
the radio advertising spots refer listeners to the group ' s web site at kars4kids . com . as of tuesday , the site said car donations benefit joy for our youth , which it describes as
an international organization providing for the physical , emotional and spiritual needs of distressed and at - risk youth .
as the founder and director of oorah , rabbi chaim mintz has taught , nurtured , and guided many thousands of families and individuals over the years .
the arrested workers were from mexico , honduras , guatemala , el salvador and the palestinian territories . five were living at the oorah camp , authorities said ; the rest lived at the belvedere country inn , a three - story restaurant , bar and hotel complex in nearby stamford , and were transported to the camp every day in two vans . earlier in the summer , all were living in the camp . eliyohu mintz , a director of oorah , said on july 10 that the organization was not aware that the workers lacked employment authorization . [ the daily star ( oneonta , ny ) 7 / 12 / 07 ]
a few weeks ago , i met with some people at oorah’s headquarters in lakewood , nj . like many of you , i had viewed the organization as a goofy bunch of people with a catchy radio jingle and great advertising . i knew that they were into kiruv and had a camp or two , but i didn’t really know why they needed so much money and what they did with it . intrigued , i took advantage of an opportunity to discover the answers firsthand .
the best thing about urltoken is that all the good phone deals these days you need an internet connection . with cucumber you get an unlimited plan and you don’t need an internet connection . i am very happy with their service and i am happier that the money is going to fund such a choshuve organization . 1800 - cucumber

# 3 : this is a cop out . no big sponsors started oorah off . rabbi lipschitz’s point is don’t imitate , be creative on your own !
oorah is endorsed by almost every leading rabbi in the orthodox world . in most states , this is criminal fraud , and it certainly violates irs rules .
oorah fired back , arguing that it does use the facility for religious functions because it is connected to a jewish day care that is run on premises .
according to robek , stadler is still a member in good standing at the young israel , despite negotiating the sale agreement with oorah that spurred the lawsuit .
oorah invested the money and then lost the money . and we think that , too , is something important for people to know ,
swanson said .
this dichotomy , whereby oorah is so well - known for its advertising , yet less known for its world - changing and global kiruv efforts , is striking .
oorah is filling a need in kiruv that many other orgs . leave out—accompanying the baalei teshuva on their journey in order to create successful long - term outcome .
“we are still hoping this can all be resolved amicably , ” said robek . “i just don’t believe in a situation where oorah will agree to leave . ”
so , go out and run the race . and , even though it is your organization that is doing the hard work , take some lessons from the marines and treat your donors like the superheroes that they are . after all , the marines are making this sacrifice for our country , just as our donors are making another kind of sacrifice for our organizations .
on this one , oorah and kars4kids wrote the story for us . this is a hat tip to the director of public relations for making our lives that much easier .
joy is a registered international , 501 ( c ) ( 3 ) , non - profit organization providing developmental programs for at risk youth . joy provides food , clothing , shelter , health and wellness , education , after school programs , special training , mentoring , tutoring , private counseling , summer programs , and guidance to children from the ages of six to eighteen .
on . we have been with oorah for about 5 years and just love it ! ! ! always willing to put in that extra mile whether it is learning or listening .
* * * by way of contrast , in 1998 , the last of the five probationary years preceding the irs decision on whether or not to grant permanent tax exempt status , oorah raised $ 262 , 657 and gave away $ 238 , 207 , just over 90 % of what it raised . download oorah _ 1998 _ irs _ 990 . pdf
a federal court has found that oorah failed to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars of tuition scholarship money it owed to the jewish foundation school / rabbi jacob joseph orthodox day school .
in the recent decision , a judge agreed that sidney stadler , the synagogue representative who bartered with oorah in 2007 , did not have the authority to enter into the arbitration agreement .
especially costly were kars4kids’ and oorah’s real estate investments in an alleged ponzi scheme in which they were victimized and lost more than a combined $ 7 . 6 million in 2009 and 2010 . to put the $ 7 . 6 million in context , oorah’s total cash spending on jewish youth programs was approximately $ 12 . 2 million over that same period . the real estate developer behind the alleged investment scheme , which reportedly caused $ 200 million in total losses , was sentenced to 22 years in prison . even though kars4kids and oorah were victims , some donors may seriously question the judgment of eliyohu mintz , the principal officer of kars4kids and oorah , and their other respective board members in deciding to risk donated charitable funds on real estate speculation .
in 2013 , a religious court , or beit din , ruled that the synagogue owed oorah $ 1 million after a dispute arose regarding the use of the property for the congregation’s services . congregants later objected to the presence of rabbi chaim mintz , the father of oorah’s acting president rabbi eliyahu mintz , as one of the judges on the beit din . ( a representative from oorah said that rabbi chaim mintz did not serve on the beit din that adjudicated the case , though the court decision says he was one of the arbitrators . ) in an effort to evade the potentially crippling arbitration award , the synagogue petitioned to vacate the award , arguing that the synagogue representative who originally entered into the agreement with oorah in 2007 had no authority to do so . )
for example , tax statements show that joy for our youth raised $ 24 million in 2009 , spending $ 7 million on advertising and $ 12 . 7 million for a grant to oorah .
when money passes from one charity to another , typically an additional layer of overhead cost takes a second bite out of donations , leaving less cash available to be spent on the programs donors intend to support . for example , based on these charities ' 2008 overhead rates , a $ 100 donation to joy that is then granted to oorah would result in $ 35 left to help children . in its 2008 tax form , joy reports spending just over $ 14 . 6 million , or 65 % of its $ 22 . 5 million budget , on programs - - which at face value appears to be a reasonable amount . however , nearly all of this program spending , $ 14 . 5 million , consisted of a grant to the charity ' s affiliate organization , oorah . this grant made up most of oorah ' s funding in 2008 , according to that charity ' s tax form , on which it reports spending 46 % of its budget on overhead . donors who only look at joy ' s reported program spending without taking oorah ' s overhead expenses into account might get the impression that more of their charitable donations are going to benefit kids than is actually the case .
oorah has the endorsements ( download oorah _ rabbinic _ endorsements . pdf ) of many haredi gedolim and rabbinic leaders , including many who sigined the rabbi slifkin ban , and a who ' s who of modern orthodox leaders as well , including yu ' s rabbi modechai willig , the ou and yu ' s rabbi menachem genak , and the beit din of america ' s rabbi michael broyde .
the 2007 agreement said that oorah would pay off the property mortgages and other expenses in exchange for owning the building , with the understanding that the synagogue would continue to run services on the property .
established in 1996 to help those children who were on the streets with no one to turn to for help . the dire situation of many young children was at dangerous levels . joy stepped in to fulfill a need for children who had no where to go and no one to turn to for help . joy has blossomed into an international organization helping to alleviate the problems of hundreds of children , and finding solutions that work .
1 . oorah initially brought claims for breach of contract , promissory estoppel , and confirmation and enforcement of an arbitral award . compl . ¶¶ 57 - 71 . the school counterclaimed for breach of contract , quantum meruit , and unjust enrichment . answer ¶¶ 18 - 28 . only oorah ' s breach of contract claim and the school ' s counterclaims for breach of contract and unjust enrichment survived summary judgment .
kars4kids’ low rate of program spending is also particularly concerning given that the vast majority of kars4kids’ program expenses consist of grants to its “sister charity , ” oorah , which runs the “educational , developmental , and recreational programs for jewish youth and their families” funded by kars4kids , per its mission . about 93 % of kars4kids’ cash - based program spending in 2015 was in the form of a grant to oorah in the amount of approximately $ 16 . 9 million . by comparison , kars4kids reported spending about $ 17 . 1 million on advertising and promotion in 2015 – about $ 150 , 000 more than its cash grant to oorah . furthermore , as a percentage of the funds kars4kids generated from donated vehicles ( including boats & planes ) in 2015 , its grant to oorah represented only about 46 % of those total funds raised .
when organizations like oorah , delineate all the wonderful ways our tzadakah dollars are being used it not only validates the importance of giving tzadakah but shows how transparency in our mosdos can be a true kiddush hashem .
while phone calls placed to oorah also were not returned , that group ' s web site says it was founded in 1980 ,
with the goal of awakening jewish children and their families to their heritage .
since 2010 when charitywatch last wrote about kars4kids and the more than $ 100 , 000 it paid related to misleading advertising claims in oregon and pennsylvania , news reports have identified kars4kids and / or oorah in connection with additional cases involving legal accusations or other questionable financial dealings . these include getting caught up as victims in an alleged ponzi scheme related to speculating on real estate development ; oorah losing a federal lawsuit over more than $ 300 , 000 in allegedly unpaid scholarship funds ; an ongoing payment dispute with the young israel of eltingville synagogue that includes tax fraud allegations against oorah ; and kars4kids paying to settle claims of trademark infringement .
the focus of the attorney general’s report was on the fact that less money was spent on children and programs in minnesota than was raised in that state . this is true and we have never claimed otherwise . as a community - based national organization founded and headquartered in the northeast , it is only natural ( and perfectly legal ) for our charity recipients to be concentrated in this area , though we do have children and programs across the country .
in the application , congregation oorah suggests that the current young israel congregation is defunct , stating that the location “was known as the young israel of eltingville” and claiming that no other entity operates in the same facility .
the coats , i ' m told , primarily came from an unrelated charity and oorah , et al , didn ' t even have to pay for many of them . but even if they did pay , the number fo coats given away in this exploitative manner is exceedingly small compared to the money kars - 4 - kids raises every year . the vast bulk of that money goes to oorah , often through joy for youth .
oorah , however , spent $ 6 . 5 million on its programs that year , according to tax returns . another $ 3 . 5 million went to fundraising and administration , and $ 5 . 4 million was not disbursed .
the warmth , the inviting atmosphere , the sense of community . there’s something about the staten island jewish community that will keep you coming back for more . oorah staten island is the number one source for jewish programming here on the island . with our programs and events , you’ll discover the timeless power of our jewish heritage and values . oorah staten island is the center for the jewish community , offering educational and recreational programs , all completely free . come on over !
the site also says oorah enables children to enroll in jewish day schools or yeshivas and brings
adult education opportunities to the parent , as well as all the ritual objects and support they need to live a full jewish life .
a january 2005 story in new york ' s the jewish week said oorah recruits potential students by going
door - to - door
in search of unobservant jewish families receptive to the idea of sending their children to day school .
“i’ve never seen any member of this so - called ‘congregation oorah’ here for services . i don’t know what they’re talking about , ” said robek , who is 77 and has been a member of the young israel for two decades .

oorah ' s simple , straightforward goal is to give jewish children and their families opportunities to become active and productive members of their community . we accomplish this through our specially developed programs , focusing on education , extracurricular activities , and family enrichment .
you never know . so often we find hype with little substance behind it and sometimes , if we dig deep enough , we can find that elusive diamond in the rough that , like oorah , is waiting to be mined , polished and appreciated .
“when applying for tax - exempt status for its non - existent congregation , oorah falsely told the irs that young israel of eltingville no longer exists and it is holding services at the young israel’s location , ” rubin , who is representing the synagogue pro bono , told the jewish week via email . he says it’s “identity theft” because “oorah adopted young israel of eltingville’s identity to obtain tax - exempt status as a religious congregation . it would not have been able to obtain this tax status without the false representation . ”

“we found a dc - 3 that was actually used by north central airlines between about 1953 and 1960 , ” helminiak said . “the unique thing about this aircraft is not only did it fly with north central airlines but it is actually in airworthy condition with passenger seats in it , in pristine condition actually . it’s been based for the last 20 years in victorville , california which has a dry desert like air environment so the corrosion on the aircraft is non - existent . it’s been a regularly flying aircraft . ”
“we think it would be wonderful for some of these towns to see north central airlines return even if it’s just for one final flight . it would bring back a lot of memories for people . it’s also been a very emotional project for some of the former pilots of north central airlines , many of which are still alive and flew this actual dc - 3 that we found . ”
when helminiak spoke with the tribune - gazette in january , he said he had hoped the aviation heritage center could purchase a dc - 3 that had original north central airlines interior from that time period .

“if everything goes as planned we want to bring the aircraft from california to wisconsin later this summer and over the winter paint it in north central airlines colors of that era , 1953 - 1954 , ” helminiak said . “then our first stop on the tour would be clintonville . then we’d take it to other small towns and do a collaborative fundraising event , not only for the aircraft but also for the small towns to benefit their historical societies or whatever charitable function locally they want to benefit .

[ 2 ] the rule and the reasoning of these decisions indicate that plaintiff should be allowed to amend . the obligation asserted by plaintiff is fully described in the complaint . the answer reveals that defendants are fully aware of the details of the transaction out of which it is claimed to arise . the affidavits do not show that any corporation named california central airlines ( without the
inc .
) ever existed . the only entity called california central airlines shown ever to have existed is the corporation sought to be substituted , doing business under that name . defendants ' affidavits nowhere seek to show that the original complaint in any way misled them as to the transaction sued upon or the true party asserting the claim against them . in no sense would they be required to
answer a wholly different legal liability or obligation from [ 169 cal . app . 2d 439 ] that originally stated .
of course , the evidence may reveal that the substituted plaintiff is not the lessee named in the oral agreement , or is not qualified to sue . but these are issues to be determined upon the amended complaint .

“it’s very , very rewarding . there’s no dc - 3 that we know of anywhere in the country that is presently flying under the colors of the former airline . to bring north central airlines back in a dc - 3 like this will be a real attention grabber and a very unique project that we’re very proud to be a part of . ”

“it lends immediate credibility to the project because the donors or corporations say , ‘if the city of clintonville believes strongly enough in the aviation heritage center to commemorate north central airlines via the acquisition of a dc - 3 aircraft they must know what they’re doing . ’ it enhances our efforts to raise money because that is one of the largest pledges and gifts we’ve received to date , ” helminiak said .
he added , “i’m very grateful to the city of clintonville for partnering with us on this project . it seems that this is all meant to be from the fact north central airlines started here in clintonville . that we’re able to come full circle and bring a dc - 3 back to the birthplace is really meaningful . the fact clintonville is a part of it means a lot to all of us . ”

leah boyd and her husband , matt , were flying to providence , rhode island , but were held up at the baltimore airport for three hours by mechanical issues with two different planes .
they finally boarded a plane , but after sitting at the gate for nearly an hour passengers were asked to exit because of the technology outage , boyd said .
then the pilots reached the end of their shifts , so passengers waited for a replacement crew . the boyds ended up canceling their reservations and planned to drive to providence on thursday instead .
leah figured it would be hard to find seats on another flight .
i ' ve never seen so many people in the terminal ,
she said .
all these people are going to be flying standby .
anxious customers tweeted to southwest that they could not check in for flights . the airline ' s website wasn ' t working normally - - visitors couldn ' t buy tickets , check in for flights , or check their flight ' s status .
