“What students are saying…”

I came to Chabad expecting to ‘get my Jew on’ once in a while — but it became my Jewish home away from home.

“I joined to be part of a Jewish community while away at school. My favorite memories are at Shabbat dinners.”

“Before my first Shabbat, my roommate asked what time I’d be getting back. I stayed an hour longer than I thought I would!

“The very first time I came, I spilled grape juice all over the tablecloth. I thought I'd never be invited back. Instead, Chabad welcomed me with open arms.”

“Even if I hadn’t come for months, I always knew I could walk into Chabad and be welcomed like family.”

“It took me three years to finally come to Chabad—and even then, you welcomed me like I had been there all along.”
