Beren ASK OU OUTREACH program involving the OU’s renowned kashrus experts in Brooklyn, and specifically at Agudas Yisroel Bais Binyomin. We anticipate that once again we will encounter a large crowd of both men and women at the shul who wish to be educated in the latest innovations in OU quality kashrus supervision. We appreciate the warm encouragement of the OU’s kashrus educational programs by the esteemed Mora D’Asra Rav Moshe Tuvia Lieff, shlita.”
