NYU Students Propel Growth of Chabad House

by Karen Schwartz – Chabad.edu

Samantha Adelsberg graduated from New York University in 2010 and wanted to stay in the area. The Chabad House Serving NYU, directed by Chabad-Lubavitch Rabbi Dov Yona and Sarah Korn, was a big factor in her decision to remain downtown, because she knew she’d have a Jewish community and fabulous place to enjoy the Sabbath.

PSA: What Are You Doing Two Days Before Purim?

Making a last minute dash to Boro Park for the perfect addition to your mishloach manos… laying out your childrens’ costumes so they’re pressed and ready in time for megilla… polishing the prized silver mezuzah case that you won at a Chinese auction all those years ago… finishing a purim seuda menu that is both hearty enough to feed the ravenous revelers who will come toppling tipsily through the door, and festive enough to compliment the holiday feel… smiling as you acknowledge the hard work it takes to run a household, hard work that is rewarded with the ultimate nachas and inner joy.
