Kol Korei Regarding Credit Unions

Hamodia.com By D. COHEN
Lakewood N.J. - There has been recent rising awareness that using credit unions presents a serious question regarding the issur d’Oraisa of ribbis.

A letter signed by Harav Hillel David, shlita, Rav of Khal Shaarei Torah; Harav Dovid Feinstein, shlita, Rosh Yeshivah, Yeshivas Tifereth Jerusalem Harav Shmuel Kamenetsky, shlita, Rosh Yeshivah, Yeshiva of Philadelphia; Harav Reuven Feinstein, shlita, Rosh Yeshivah, Yeshivas Staten Island and Harav Shlomo Miller, Rosh Kollel, Kollel Avreichim, Toronto states that one may not be part of or borrow from a credit union.

The letter ends off by saying that since there are possible heterim one should consult his Rav. A majority of today’s Poskim hold that at the very least it would be ideal to have a heter iska, with many saying it is a necessity. First Atlantic (the credit union which finances most Lakewood car loans) has been presented with several solutions which unfortunately were all rejected.

Lakewood Chaveirim Update on Traffic Today

Lakewood chaveirim: A special thank you to the many Chaveirim members who devoted time and energy in the cold early Tuesday morning(12/25), helping drop-off and pickup hours at schools run smoothly. Despite the thousands of cars, most locations that had substantial traffic in the past, proceeded without trouble.

Two areas are still posing a huge challenge, -Oak/Vine Area
Even though we were able to reduce the wait time substantially, that is still no comfort to anyone who was stuck in traffic. The volume of cars is simply greater than the infrastructure is capable of handling in such a short amount of time.  Even though we cannot make the traffic disappear, we keep trying to improve and come up with new solutions to help reduce the traffic pains in Lakewoo
