The 2018 Midwest Agudah Convention
An accomplished real estate development professional, Zvi Feiner has led Feiner Investment Corporation in Chicago since 2004. Outside of his professional life, Zvi Feiner stands out as an active member of his community who holds leadership roles with multiple Jewish groups and regularly attends events such as the Midwest Agudah Convention, one of Agudath Israel’s largest conferences, held in the Chicago area bi-annually.
Founded in Poland in 1913, Agudath Israel has been serving the Orthodox Jewish community in the United States since 1922. Over the past century, the organization has expanded across the country while advocating for Orthodox Judaism through a combination of local and federal government advocacy, community-based social programs, educational initiatives, and annual conferences and seminars held throughout the year.
In December 2018, Agudath Israel held its annual Midwest Agudah Convention in the Chicago suburb of Schaumburg, Illinois. The three-day event brought together more than 1,300 participants from around the country for lectures, panels, and workshops led by prominent figures such as Rabbi Aharon Feldman, Rabbi Elya Brudny, and Rabbi Yonasan Abraham. Additionally, the conference featured a lineup of women speakers that included Rebbetzin Joy Ehrman and Rebbetzin Sarah Feldman. Conference events centered on the theme of “clarity,” with specific topics including community development, protecting religious freedom, and Agudath Israel's continued advocacy initiatives.

The Goals and Mission of Yeshiva Ohr Boruch
The holder of an MBA from Roosevelt University, Zvi Feiner balances a successful career in the real estate field with a commitment to a range of community organizations. Among other groups, Zvi Feiner supports Yeshiva Ohr Boruch and previously led the school as its president.
A beneficiary of the Jewish Federation and the Kehillah Jewish Education Fund, and located on Pratt Avenue in the West Rogers Park neighborhood of Chicago, Yeshiva Ohr Boruch serves students from kindergarten through eighth grade and utilizes a comprehensive state-approved curriculum that offers secular studies through a lens of Jewish history and experience. Modeled after the European chadorim common in Europe before World War II, the yeshiva offers courses for a wide range of learners and presents the Limudei Kodesh in Yiddish.
The school’s educational and teaching philosophies are based on a commitment to transmitting traditional Jewish values rooted in the Torah, with an emphasis on ethics, morals, and a love for G-d and one’s fellow human beings. Yeshiva Ohr Boruch is committed to teaching these principles to all Jewish learners regardless of financial situation, and offers a range of financial assistance programs to families who wish to send their children to the school.
