Baltimore, MD - Aug. 2, 2024  - Etz Chaim, a leading provider of informal Jewish education in Baltimore for nearly five decades under the visionary leadership of Rabbi Shlomo Porter, is pleased to announce a significant milestone in its history.

Over the past eight years, Etz Chaim has revitalized its programming and has been developing thriving communities in the broader Baltimore area. To accommodate our growing communities and enhance our programming, we have made the strategic decision to sell our current facility at 3702 Fords Lane with the goal of establishing new facilities in key locations to service these developing communities.

Etz Chaim's programs have resonated with a diverse range of individuals, including Jewish graduate students, young professionals, families, empty nesters, and seniors seeking meaningful Jewish experiences. The new facilities will better serve these vibrant communities, ensuring a bright future for Jewish education in Baltimore.

The sale of our current building to Bnos Yisroel of Baltimore, a Jewish girls' school sharing Etz Chaim's commitment to Jewish education, marks an exciting new chapter for the organization. Etz Chaim looks forward to continuing to serve and inspire our community in innovative ways.
