Could you imagine how much worse it would become to drive up Kingston Avenue? Or how many more tickets would be issued on a regular basis? Well, don’t worry the above picture didn’t happen yet. But it can! Just like Empire Boulevard was revamped almost overnight.

Several youngsters at Chabad’s Youth Zone – Kids in Action for Israel – while decorating pillow cases for children in Israel

MONROE, NY [CHI] — Chabad’s Kids In Action for Israel recently met at the Castle Fun Center in Chester for an exciting afternoon of mini-golf and Go-Karting. Afterward, the group headed to Chabad’s Goshen location to enjoy ice-cream sundaes and to decorate pillowcases for children in Israel who are victims of war.

In the education/information category there are a number of strong sites, with Chabad emerging as a brand leader. Chabad’s main website consistently serves as an example of what a successful educational/informational Web presence can look like. Over the past year its traffic rose by 37 percent and is now significantly above the other sites studied. In contrast, the Web presence of other religious movements – Reform, Conservative and Orthodox Judaism – was much poorer, though OU.org does moderately well.
