Chabad Lubavitch Of Sarasota & Manatee Counties

What is Chabad

Chabad is the world’s largest Jewish educational outreach program. Chabad’s success is based on the fact that Chabad is not a particular brand of Judaism. It’s an outlook. We believe in the importance of the individual and the significance of every single deed. Indeed, Chabad pioneered the concept that the Torah must be accessible to men and women at every social, economic and educational level. Once centered in the Russian town of Lubavitch, translated as “the city of brotherly love,” Chabad now serves the needs of millions at more than 4,000 centers worldwide.

Chabad’s philosophy remains simple: love every Jew, educate every Jew, and reach out to every Jew. We open our arms and our hearts to all, regardless of education or background. That’s a commitment we have honored throughout the greater Sarasota–Manatee area since November 1990 when the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, sent Rabbi Chaim & Sara Steinmetz as his emissaries to Sarasota-Manatee.
