Jason Zucker is returning for his first summer as a madrich after being on the program as an NCSYer 4 summers ago. Jason is from Great Neck and went to SAR High School, followed by two years at Yeshivat Reishit. Jason is currently starting YU in the Fall for his first official semester after having been there in the Post Pesach Program.
Jason’s Chaburah is made up of 4 kids from four different communities but each knew one other kid coming in with the opportunity to meet two new people plus Jason. Yaakov Greenbaum from Queens and he is in MTA. Elya Cohen from Cleveland formerly in MTA but now in Yeshiva High School. Zisha Lefkowitz from Baltimore and formerly from Toras Chaim in Miami Beach but now in Mekor Chaim. Lastly, Aharon Steinberg from Boca and is in Toras Chaim in Miami Beach. Jason’s Chaburah is special because not only do they have the chance of learning in-depth about Shabbos in a way they never have before, but they also have the opportunity of making new friends. Jason’s Chaburah is based on how to make one’s Shabbos more enjoyable and special to each person with a mixture of ideas and sources, with examples including oneg shabbos, preparing for shabbos, the kedusha of shabbos, and more.
The Chaburah has already accomplished so much in terms of getting closer and learning about Shabbos, and can’t wait to finish out the summer strong.
