It was announced today that the Gur Rebbe will also take part in the historic Keren Olam HaTorah project. He is expected to arrive in New York on Parshas Shelach to help raise over 100 million dollars for Keren Olam HaTorah, which supports yeshivas and kollels in Eretz Yisroel following significant government funding cuts.

The Rebbe is also expected to visit the area for the Chanukas Habayis of the new, large cheider in Boro Park.

Among those joining the journey are numerous leading figures from the Litvish Roshei Yeshiva, as well as the Gur, Sanz, and Rachmistrivka Rebbes.

The exact details of this trip are still being finalized.
