The young man introduces in his letter: "I have heard from Rabbi Elchanan Yakovovich Shlita (Mashgiach of our yeshiva) and more, about the greatness of Maran Shlita and who praises Hillel and Aharon, To help each and every one, even with the worst of the worst, to pursue peace and bring people closer, to keep the commandment "VeA'avta L'ereacha Kamocha" in every detail up to a degree of devotion for each and every one of Israel ...

I'm in very terrible situation! I am weak and helpless ...", and extends and details about his difficult financial situation. The young man asks the rabbi to help him immigrate to Eretz Yisrael through an aliyah license, and when he arrives he will come to study at his holy yeshiva:"With the assurance that Rabbeynu will fulfill my wish to send me an Immigration license, I will finish the letter ...".
