Boro Park Satmar mega philanthropist Lipa Friedman has been making waves with his largesse and generosity, donating generously to countless organizations and individuals, and erecting and dedicating massive buildings for Satmar's mosdos in Boro Park.

He merited to marry off a child earlier this week, and this occasion too was an opportunity for giving. On the day of the wedding, his doors were open wide, and hundreds of people emerged from his home with large sums for tzeddakah. The wedding drew representatives from institutions throughout the world, all grateful for the generosity of this young visionary who has absorbed his Rebbe's chessed philosophy. 

Among the guests were representatives from both Satmar kehillos, on account of a recent historic development in which Reb Lipa was a pivotal pillar. The yerusha of the Beirach Moshe of Satmar had been in contention for many years, and hadn't been allocated to the children since his passing. But just last week, after much work on the part of Lipa Friedman, the precious heirlooms were fairly and equitably split between the children. The Admorim were deeply grateful for this, and demonstrated their appreciation to Reb Lipa on his child's wedding day. 

In conjunction with the sheva brachos celebration, Reb Lipa will be donating the first sefer Torah to the boys yeshiva on Ocean Parkway which he dedicated in recent years. The celebration will bring together thousands of Satmar chassidim from Boro Park and beyond, along with the children from the cheder--all of whom will rejoice with the Torah on the streets of our community. The celebration will be headed by the Satmar Rebbe shlit"a. 

The procession will go out from the Friedman home on 16th Avenue an 52nd Street until 17th Avenue. From there, the Rebbe and other dignitaries will be transported to Ocean Parkway where the Torah will officially be inaugurated to be used by the precious tinnokos shel bais rabban for many years to come.
