Instilling
Halachic clarity
into your workday
Our Mission
Yorucha’s mission is to spread practical knowledge of business halacha among all Jews. A frum Jew in the workplace often faces numerous halachic conundrums, yet Choshen Mishpat is challenging for most. Yorucha’s team of talmidei chachamim have created chaburos, shiurim, and user-friendly resources to make these essential halachos accessible to every conscientious Torah Jew.
Yorucha's Growth
Today, Yorucha has facilitated multiple weekend shiurim across the globe. Additionally, a contemporary halacha video shiur by a Bias Havaad Dayan is available each week. Yorucha’s comprehensive, user-friendly maareh mekomos booklets provide an in-depth view of the subject matter in a clear, organized format. Yorucha also offers an audio accompaniment to explain the sources in easily understood, bite-sized segments.
