Tal Levy is currently enjoying his third summer on NCSY Kollel — his second as a madrich. Tal, from Montreal, attended Hebrew Academy for high school, followed by two incredible years at Yeshivat HaKotel. He will be entering his second year at YU this upcoming fall.
Tal’s Chaburah is made up of an outstanding group of post-11th grade guys, each bringing something special and unique to the Chaburah. Starting off with the rookies: hailing from the West Coast, the Chaburah has been blessed with two incredible Shalhevet bochrim. Martzi Hirsch, a dedicated and committed ben Torah, enlightens the Chaburah daily. Etan Lerner, an inspired and ever-curious learner, brings his chiddushim and insights. Akiva Wogan, from Memphis, Tennessee, attends Missouri Torah Institute. Akiva has contagious energy and positivity that help create such an amazing atmosphere. And last but not least — from Philly, attending the Mesivta High School — is Yehuda Barnett. Yehuda has an incredible drive and passion for growth in his avodas Hashem, pushing the limits for everyone in the Chaburah.
This summer, the Chaburah is focused on finding a deeper understanding and meaning behind the mitzvos we do — such as tzitzis, tefillin, and tzedaka — in order to better connect to mitzvos on a greater level, grow our relationship with Hashem, and ultimately become the greatest ovdei Hashem we can be.
Tal’s Chaburah has been having an amazing and meaningful summer and can’t wait to see what the rest of the season has in store!
