Buenos Aires – Student Leadership Program (Sukkat David)
Ner Le’elef, began in Argentina, South America, in June, 2000. The first program comprised of a group of 26 participants, all of them highly qualified from the most important Yeshivot in Israel. They are highly motivated to do outreach and have a great spirit of sacrifice for the Jewish Nation. The first two year program has been successfully completed and the graduates have taken up a range of important communal positions in Buenos Aires and further afield. The Rabbis Training Program is directed by Rabbi Abraham Serruya, Rabbi Efraim Dines and Rabbi Daniel Oppenheimer. In addition, experienced professionals such as Rabbis, Doctors and Psychologists, Social Workers and Communications Specialists complete the staff. Some of the program's accomplishments include the publication of two books so far ("Answer to the Unbeliever" and "Mixed Marriages"), which have been broadly distributed. Rabbi Fabio Pirowicz has recently published a book, "Chadesh Iameinu KeKedem" with commentary on the Parshat HaShavua. The most outstanding Rabbis of the city went to the book publication ceremony.
Ner LeElef in Buenos Aires has implemented the realization of Chuguei Bait (home-based lectures), a very efficient Jewish outreach technique. The Chuguei Bait has reached, so far, more than 300 participants. We receive daily requests for Rabbis and teachers from the main cities and Jewish establishments of South America (Caracas, San Pablo, Rio de Janeiro, Santiago from Chile and Montevideo), of Panama and recently of Barcelona (Spain). One of our students, Rabbi Gabriel Allami will be accepted as part of the community Magen David of Venezuela. Sukkat David also includes the participation of 30 university students, who have been integrated into our community with a schedule of study and community activities. Many of them are counselors for institutions and social clubs.

Buenos Aires – Rabbis Training Program (R. Sacca)
Students with little to no Jewish background but with high leadership potential and a strong commitment to Jewish identity are required to learn 4 hours per week in Judaic studies, plus 4 hours a week in Ner student leadership courses. Students also receive a stipend compensation towards supervised community services as a part of their overall course framework. For example some students are running a Sunday Talmud Torah in a section of Buenos Aires where there wasn't any previous Jewish education available, some go to provinces outside the city to communities with no formal Jewish leadership, some run Jewish education programs in government schools, some are involved with web/multimedia projects, laying the groundwork for a global student movement with a strong base in North America and South America.
