Overview
Mission
Yagdil Torah is dedicated to encouraging and enabling limud hatorah in the Crown Heights community. Yagdil Torah currently facilitates hundreds of hours of Torah learning each week by providing a comfortable space for learning and weekly shiurim. With continued support we plan to expand our operations to include new programs and additional centers. I’m Rabbi Levi Browd. I'm the founder and director of Yagdil Torah. I plan, create, strategize and execute programs that help people engage in Torah study. I have successfully opened 2 learning halls and one with a partner - in Crown Heights, where I make sure that the learning environment is warm and welcoming.
