To Whom It May Concern:

We are a small college-prep high school with meager financial and manpower resources, but possessing a real need to reconnect with our nearly five hundred alumni who have graduated the Louis and Sarah Block Yeshiva High School of St Louis, established in 1978.

For nearly five years we have sought to create an effective database, an administrated interactive platform and an alumnus generated social network. Until this year, when Benjamin joined our team we had all but given up.

Benjamin brilliantly and methodically analyzed the structural and processing intent of the school Board and administration. Benjamin experimented with different modalities and finally created a most efficient, custom made and fundamental infrastructure, resulting in the development of an exceptionally comprehensive overhaul of the school's entire alumni fundraising scheme.

Through Benjamin's efforts, BYHS has launched its cloud computing initiative to reach out & involve BYHS alumni in a social network. These initiatives have led to increased alumni participation in fund raising programs as well as improved up-to-date data quality for alumni demographic profiles. Benjamin has also succeeded in porting the cloud based Alumni network to a web host providing services free of charge as part of the web host's non-profit program. Benjamin also improved security through the adoption of SSL (Secure Socket Layer) to better guard alumni demographic information from compromise.

In just six months we have reached all our goals and for the first time in the school's history we have an excellent set of tools for gathering data and interacting with our alumni.

We are thrilled with Benjamin's determination, integrity and creativity. We recommend him highly.

Respectfully,

Rabbi Gabriel Munk
