Dov Hikind Helps Hundreds Get Jobs

Brooklyn,NY
A Brooklyn lawmaker co-sponsored a jobs fair with the OU with great success.
The event in Midwood was jointly promoted by the Orthodox Union and state Assemblyman Dov Hikind.
Hikind told me how proud he was in helping hundreds of people egt good paying jobs over the last few years at the Jobs Fair held at Young Israel of Midwood on Thursday.
Hikind said many people who showed up at the door were allowed in for free.
A notice put out by the Orthodox Union Jobs Board last month required employers to pay $200 to participate and not-for-profit groups, $100.
The fee is tax deductible because OU is a not-for-profit group .
Corporate sponsors who paid at least $500 received additional exposure on the OU Job Board website and in radio and newspaper ads.
More than 400 people attended the fair.
Corporate sponsors included Price Waterhouse, New York Life, Forest Hills Financial Group and B&H Photo.
