Rabbi Chaim Perkal, Chairman and CEO of Alei Siach, remarked, “The opening of the Bnei Brak branch is wonderful news for many families. We will continue to respond to the community’s needs by expanding our services and providing professional support with dedication and care.”
In an emotional and uplifting ceremony this week, the new Merkaz Ofek branch was officially inaugurated. The Bnei Brak branch will make Alei Siach’s existing programs and services more accessible to families in the area, ensuring that professional assistance is readily available close to home. The center will ensure professional, personalized, and sensitive support to individuals with disabilities and their families in the Bnei Brak area who are seeking help with matchmaking, relationships, and building a Jewish home. This new location joins Merkaz Ofek’s growing network of services across Israel, which has expanded significantly in recent years as Alei Siach responds to the increasing demand for specialized guidance and support.
Rav Landau attended the inauguration and was honored with affixing the mezuzah at the entrance to the new offices. In his words of blessing and encouragement, he highlighted the tremendous importance of working for the benefit of Klal Yisrael, particularly through guiding and supporting families with professionalism, responsibility, sensitivity, and Yiras Shamayim.
He also emphasized that every act of helping others is a way of honoring Hashem and increasing kindness and goodwill among the Jewish people. Rav Landau blessed the center’s management and staff with continued success in expanding their holy work, with Hashem’s help.
The director of Merkaz Ofek also addressed those in attendance, presenting the range of programs and services, along with plans for future expansion in response to the growing demand. He emphasized that the center’s mission is to provide every family with professional, personal, and compassionate support while combining rabbinic guidance with the expertise of experienced professionals.
In closing, Rabbi Perkal stated, “We witness firsthand the growing need for professional and sensitive guidance, and with Hashem’s help, we will continue to provide every family with the tools, direction, and support they need, accompanied by responsibility, dedication, and genuine sensitivity to the community’s needs. It is a tremendous privilege to help establish Jewish homes in Israel and assist the families who need our services.”
