I wonder why they also run a congregation...

They operate a preschool there.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

Probably part of their property donation program.

I'm very well aware, and I specifically did not want to get into a political discussion about that. Now that you brought it up, I'll tell you that the president of the Young Israel begged Oorah to get involved and save the shul.
I don't think so...
Is that all you have to add?

Save the Shul from what? Since when was Oorah involved in saving Shuls?

I'm not going to get into a public discussion about it. The shul was falling apart financially.

I can only guess, but a few facts I do know are
1) Oorah was founded in SI
2) The president of the shul was well acquainted with Oorah
3) Oorah had use for the building (pre-school, Torah Spot, and other programs)

Was that before or after they bought the Shul?

Oorah got off easy last night. They have a prize in which you win 100 times your donation, up to $50,000.

The winner donated $30, and won $3,000.

But a relative of mine did.. disappointing.

(Their sister won 14K towards a car, though.)

Quotes in a signature is annoying, as it comes across as an independent post.
