Abraham Samuel Friedman, of blessed memory, was a successful businessman and
generous philanthropist with a strong belief in Torah education. This conviction
led Abe to be one of the visionaries who founded the Phoenix Community Kollel.
His love of Torah scholarship led to the dedication of the Phoenix Community Kollel’s
Friedman Memorial Torah Library in memory of his parents Moshe & Devorah Friedman Z"L and in-laws Shlomo Mendel & Sarah Rifka Lebkes Z"L.

The
Friedman Memorial Torah Library has grown over the years with many individual donations in honor or memory of loved ones or special occasions. In addition, the library houses three special collections. To make a donation to the Library Please click here for our Wish List
