What We Do
Everything about Chazaq is unique. Let’s start at the beginning, when our founder, Yaniv Meirov at the tender age of 15 wrote and distributed weekly Torah newsletters. His brother, Rav Ilan noticed that Yaniv’s newsletter needed a big brother’s help so they joined hands in working together.
Yaniv is a man of passion and he and his brother wanted to educate their community. The first lecture arranged was with a young dynamic speaker. Anticipating a crowd of 20, Yaniv and Rav Ilan were overjoyed as they welcomed over 500 people at their very first event, and Chazaq was born!
Our Mission
Our Divisions & Services
The CHAZAQ magazine is a source of information on topics that touch on all the life cycles in a Jewish life. Our well known articles highlight Torah thoughts, guidance on marriage, children, family and advice from attorneys, doctors, dentists and more.
From recipes to exercise, our popular themes consistently make the CHAZAQ magazine one that is read in over 10,000 homes. Our far reaching grasp helps us enrich each member of the household with the awareness of our heritage while broaching vital subjects through a Torah perspective.
Every Jewish child deserves a Jewish education!
Our CHAZAQ PSTY Division has one unique goal – to give every Jewish Child the opportunity to receive a valuable Jewish education in a Yeshivah setting.
We work as partners together with parents of children in Public Schools to offer their children the benefits of Judaic studies.
Obtaining a Jewish Education is not just learning our history, it is the life lessons that we, as parents, must teach our children. Nowadays, Yeshivot are offering a solid dual curriculum with a strong secular and Judaic education.
We strongly believe that having our children in a proper Jewish environment will keep them on the right path and help them be connected to their Great Jewish Heritage and pass it on to their children and grandchildren!
At the Shaping lives Sunday program and Yaldeinu after-school program, we provide our students with a curriculum that is rich in Jewish values, songs, and traditions. We teach our students how to read Hebrew so that they can read the prayers and study the Holy Torah. The directors of the program are consistently creating and updating innovative lesson plans in order to meet the ever-changing demands and curiosities of our students.
One of our goals is to create lesson plans that target the various styles of learning. The use of visual, auditory, and/or kinesthetic is incorporated to ensure that they are always learning in a way that best suits them and their needs.
Our Shaping Lives Sunday-school and Yaldeinu After-school programs are consistently increasing the number of public school participants attending programs as well as program locations.
In a society where many youth are lacking proper direction, the CHAZAQ Teens division focuses on getting teens off the streets and into a safe environment. This program helps guide our youth to a future filled with success and prosperity.
The care and concern the teachers have for the boys and girls is a blend of embracing the child’s individuality and guiding them to be their best.
Our teachers are role models for our youth during their fundamental years. Through tremendous patience they teach them how to resist peer pressure to follow their own personal path.
Looking to create the spiritual leaders of tomorrow, Chazaq’s Beth Midrash Nosson Meir and Kolel Zichron Moshe of Queens help educate and guide young Torah scholars to reach their fullest potential. Under the leadership of Rav Ahron Walkin, our young scholars learn how to analyze Talmudic and halachic literature and are working up the ladder of success in Torah study.
Our dynamic Women’s division brings CHAZAQ programs that pertain to strengthening our Jewish homes. From teaching the Halachic way of making challah to Laws of family purity and many topics in between, the Women’s Division is welcomed by hundreds of women throughout the year. With the goal to build a true Torah home, CHAZAQ educates our future mothers, mothers and grandmothers in a fun and exciting way.
From the Twins from France to Uncle Moishy and more, CHAZAQ presents programs that delight our children and family members alike. CHAZAQ develops very exciting educational events and programs to keep each child enveloped in the richness of our culture and heritage.

In essence our CHAZAQ newsletter is how CHAZAQ was born. Our founder, Yaniv Meirov, at the tender age of 15, was concerned about the path of his contemporaries and decided to distribute inspirational Parsha sheets (a review of the Torah reading’s portion of the week) to instill Yiddishkeit among his peers. Yaniv’s initial attempt has blossomed into many programs and services and has grown into a organization of over 75 employees, who diligently to spread the words of Torah to thousands of households.
From its inception, the CHAZAQ newsletter currently has a spectacular circulation of over 10,000 issues and is printed in three languages, English, Hebrew and Russian, which enters into the homes of our multi-lingual community members and acts as an essential source for their D’vrei Torah (words from the Torah) discussed at their family Shabbos table.
Our phenomenal inspirational Jewish music is listened to online 24/6. The sounds of Jewish music lift the spirit of a Jewish soul. Helping our listeners through good times and tougher times, the CHAZAQ radio station provides appropriate musical entertainment for all.
