Our new building will significantly enhance the FTI learning environment through a larger bais 02 medrash, dining hall, and classrooms, and the addition of enrichment rooms, a computer lab, an advanced science lab, and student and staff lounges. .

The extraordinary total-chinuch experience that FTI offers draws students from all over the east 03 coast. Currently we don’t have any on-site residential facilities. The new campus will provide ample on-site residential space for our students.

FTI operates 7 days a week, 11 months a year. A full-sized indoor athletic facility is critical for our 04 students to enjoy sports and recreation throughout all seasons.

Improved office and conference space will provide the administrative staff and faculty with a more 05 conducive work environment.

The current physical presentation of FTI does not accurately portray the incredible inner experience 06 of the yeshiva. A more physically impressive school building would be more reflective of the high caliber program of FTI and would likely attract a broader array of students to consider FTI for their high school journey.

The new FTI complex will strengthen Jewish awareness and identity in the region by creating 07 broader educational opportunities for the wider community. With the creation of an ample and inviting space, the yeshiva can expand its impact to the more than 60,000 local Jewish residents through community oriented classes, seminars, and activities.

A permanent FTI building will contribute to the growth of the Cherry Hill Jewish community by 08 significantly adding to the infrastructure. As new families move into the community, both FTI and all local Jewish institutions will benefit.

The current Beis Medrash and dining room are housed in modular buildings with limited duration 09 permits subject to expire soon, after which we may be forced to close them down with no options.

As interest rates and the price of construction materials continue to rise, we want to lock-in 10 financing at current rates. Right now there is a critical need and incredible opportunity to build a permanent and ample building for FTI. It is truly a blessing to partner in this historic mitzvah of establishing a citadel of Torah in southern New Jersey and make a lasting impact on future generations of Jews in the community and the entire region.

I personally have been involved with the Yeshiva of Cherry Hill since it started, know the Roshei Yeshiva well, and can tell you that it's a chashuva makom Torah. Anyone who can help them with their new “ building campaign will certainly have a chelek in the haramas keren haTorah in Southern New Jersey and will be enabling many more talmidim to benefit from this very exceptional Yeshiva. Horav Shmuel Kamenetsky, , Talmudical Yeshiva of Philadelphia

I had the privilege of spending a Shabbos in the Foxman Torah Institute and was very impressed by the yeshiva. There is great potential for growth and they could become a major national torah mossad. There “ is a critical need for more space and anyone who helps in their building campaign will have a share in the impressive accomplishments of the yeshiva. Horav Akiva Grunblatt, Rosh Yeshiva, Rabbincal Seminary of America, Yeshiva Chofetz Chaim

I am very familiar with the Mesivta of Cherry Hill and can tell you that they treat each bochur mamash like a son. We have sent a good number of our bachurim there, and have been absolutely thrilled with the results. They are producing emesdika b’nei Torah, balei midos and emotionally healthy bachurim. “ It's a mitzva gedola to help this incredible makom Torah build a new building to enable them to be mechanech many more talmidim. Horav Yaakov Bender, Rosh Yeshiva, Yeshiva Darchei Torah

FTI is blessed with amazing Roshei Yeshiva and faculty, so capable, warm, and caring. It is heartwarming to see FTI bursting at the seams, and such a blessing for our community. “ Bernard Rothman, Rabbi Emeritus, Congregation Sons of Israel, Cherry Hill

Rabbis Shimon Max, Yisrael Davidowitz and Chaim Juni built a beautiful, loving Yeshiva in Cherry Hill, NJ, bringing authentic chinuch to the youth of South Jersey and Philadelphia, and in doing so attracted talmidim from Lakewood and from across the nation. They are the only Mesivta and Bais Medrash in “ Southern New Jersey, setting up a Torahdik future for thousands of Jewish families, Bezras Hashem. Let us all help them build! Rabbi Aaron Kotler, President,

As a parent at FTI, I see firsthand the incredible dedication of the Rebbeim. It is truly an amazing mossad, worthy of your support to build their building so more boys can experience chinuch as it was meant to be. “ Yaakov Friedler, Proud FTI Parent

The Yeshiva gave me a robust foundation in Torah learning and mussar, and laid the groundwork for my professional success as an actuary. The Rebbeim lovingly showed me the beauty and joy of a Torah “ lifestyle, inspiring me to lead my life as a ben-Torah with a lifelong commitment to personal growth and dedication to the klal.
