As we approach the Yahrzeit of Maran HaRav Elazar Menachem Man Shach zt"l, we pause to remember a towering giant of Torah whose wisdom, humility, and love for Klal Yisrael illuminated generations. His life’s mission — the building and nurturing of Ponevez Yeshiva — continues to inspire thousands of talmidim worldwide.

Today, under the leadership of his talmidim and successors, the Yeshiva stands as a living monument to his vision — a beacon of Torah, yiras Shamayim, and ahavas chesed, shaping the hearts and minds of future leaders of Klal Yisrael. Over the decades, it has become the crown jewel of the Torah world, nurturing generations of talmidei chachamim and leaders for Klal Yisrael.
