On this Erev Rosh Hashanah morning of 5779/80, we would like to thank the Ribono Shel Olam for all the Chessed He has shown us since the founding of YWN and allowing us to grow into the website our vast readership have all come to trust and count on. We thank our hundreds of thousands of devoted readers across the globe for visiting YWN each day, patronizing our advertisers, and continuing to make our website grow into your #1 stop for breaking news. We started YWN fourteen years ago, and without your participation, we would not be entering our 15th year together. By gaining your trust over the past 14 years, YWN has been able to break every major story of interest to our readers, and has stayed far ahead of the curve.

Thanks to our entire staff of reporters, the YWN Israel Bureau staff, office personnel, our photo & video staff – including: JDN, Hillel Engel, Yehuda Boltshauser (the ENTIRE STAFF at Kuvien Images & YWN Israel), PhotoDynamics, and the rest of the team – for capturing as many photos & videos as possible of anything of interest for the YWN readership. Thanks to them – and most notably JDN – our photo gallery has nearly FOUR MILLION PHOTOS!

We thank the hundreds upon hundreds of advertisers  – and our superb sales staff – that help us stay in business, and all of you who click on the ads. We know they may seem annoying, but it allows us to keep bringing you news as it happens 24 hours a day. With offices in Baltimore, New York and Jerusalem, our staff is working around the clock to bring you the latest news in live time as we have proven over and over for thirteen straight years. Special thanks to the staff at the Baltimore Headquarters for their incredible dedication and tireless work on the technical end to make sure YWN stays ahead of the curve in every way possible.

On that note, I would like personally to thank everyone once again for reading Yeshiva World News, and making this site THE undisputed largest Frum news website on the Internet.

May Hashem grant us all a year of prosperity, health, security, safety, and may we be Zoche to have the Zechus of reporting the arrival of Moshiach!

Kisiva Vachasima Tova to all!

ויהי רצון שתזכו לכתיבה וחתימה טובה לחיים טובים וארוכים בספרן של צדיקים גמורים
