She moved across the world to fulfill the Rebbe’s shlichus. Now, she’s left to figure out the next steps alone.
Rabbi Zvi and Rivky Kogan began their shlichus in 2022. Shortly after getting married, they embarked on a 13-hour flight to Abu Dhabi, where they joined the efforts of Rabbi Levi Duchman, becoming an integral part of the growing Jewish community in the United Arab Emirates.
Together, they dedicated themselves to spreading the light of Yiddishkeit, hosting Torah classes, Shabbat and Yomtov meals, and community events. Zvi focused on building the kosher infrastructure and managing Chabad house operations, while Rivky poured her heart into connecting with women through Challah bakes, monthly women’s programs, and holiday events.
On Thursday evening, everything changed. Rabbi Zvi never returned home, leaving Rivky to navigate the devastating loss and uncertain path ahead.
Rabbi Zvi Kogan was murdered for one reason. He was a Jew.
While his wife grieves, it’s our duty to support her and give her the strength she needs to continue.
Together, we can honor the legacy of Rabbi Zvi. Help Rivky continue spreading his light!
