Building a Chasidishe Moised out of New York is way harder than some people may think. In this honest conversation (Part 1) with the administrator of Eitz Chaim of Casa Grande, AZ, we pull back the curtain on what it really takes to build and sustain a Torah’diga school.
💰 The financial realities no one talks about
👨👩👧👦 Coordinating parents and managing expectations
🤝 Balancing the needs of the entire Khila
😓 Daily struggles that test your commitment
💪 Why we keep pushing forward despite it all
If you’re thinking about moving out, this is essential viewing. This is real life from someone in the trenches every day.
