Today, Chabad of the Airport will be holding their annual fundraising campaign, aiming to raise $60,000 in 32 hours.
Join Chabad of the Airport:
Wrap Tefillin with hundreds of Jewish travelers daily, young and old, from all walks of life – many for the very first time.
Light Menorah with passengers as they make their journey, and give them the opportunity to join in the joy of Chanukah as they fly.
Celebrate throughout the year – on Sukkos in JFK’s first and only Sukkah, Purim with around-the-clock Megillah readings throughout the airport, and Pesach with some Shmurah Matzah for the way.
Fly with us, and help continue this vital work by generously contributing during the next 32 hours and help us reach $60,000. ChabadAir.org/Fly
Chabad of the Airport is directed by Yossi Rapp, continuing what his memorable father began back in 1973.
For decades, Rabbi Yekusiel Menachem Rapp OB”M, ran the Chabad presence at the Airport, and specifically, amongst those at El AL, developing warm relations with El-Al executives, and through them, the Israeli security establishments. When the Rebbe wanted to send Matzos to Israel, Rabbi Rapp had it arranged. “Send it through ‘Unzer Yekusiel’”, said the Rebbe. At his father’s Shloshim, Yossi committed himself to continuing his father’s work, and Chabad activities at the Airport has been expanding ever since.
