Chabad House at Rutgers University has grown in 39 years from a small rented room in the Student Center to a 90,000 square foot Chabad Center for Jewish Life in the heart of the university. Chabad House serves more than 5,000 students annually with a variety of programs, educational activities, counselling, social events, and Kosher Dining (3 times a day) and housing for 84 students. Our Shabbat and Yom-Tov meal programs attract from 250 -500 students every week. And we never charge for any Shabbat or Yom Tov meal ! In fact, all our social and outreach programs are also free to any student ! The Shabbat and Yom Tov program alone is budgeted at $400,000.00 annually !!! (The total operating budget of Chabad House exceeds $3,000,000.00). We are requesting that you support this tremendous program that has changed thousands of lives with your contribution. Every dollar contributed will be matched by our sponsor-partners with three dollars. So your dollar is the equivalent of four dollars!! Please help us today reach our goal of four hundred thousand dollars, to ensure the continuation of all Shabbat and Yom Tov meals for thousands of campus students! On behalf of all the young men and women on campus, we thank you and wish you a Happy Healthy New Year.
