Rebbetzen Jane Farkas

AishCampus Thornhill

Jane was born in Russia, and shortly after moved with her family to Israel and then to Thornhill. When Jane turned eighteen, she went on Birthright where she took advantage of everything the trip had to offer including the Jewish educational program. When she returned home, she realized that she had fallen in love with Judaism. Jane wanted more, and that’s when she became involved in Aish Ha’Torah.

In June 2006, Jane and Erez both took the opportunity to become madrichim on a Jerusalem Fellowships trip, where they met. They married in May 2007 and joined the Aish Toronto Campus team shortly after.

Jane is an inspirational teacher and role-model to many students. She hosts regular shabbat meals, runs events at her home and supports her husband's programming both behind the scenes and on the front-line.

She is known for her straightforward thinking, her dedicated passion for her work and impactful one-on-one coaching.

Jane has three children and lives in Thornhill.
