<h4>Your Partnership, Your Legacy, Your Chabad</h4>

<p>Now is your chance to connect generations and shape a meaningful Jewish future. Chabad has played a vital role in rebuilding the Jewish community post-Holocaust, led by Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson from Brooklyn, New York. His tireless dedication has inspired a global network of emissaries spreading Jewish teachings, from Hong Kong to Melbourne. <br>
                                                                        Today, Chabad of Bensonhurst brings the community together by celebrating Shabbat with Kiddush and lunch, commemorating family milestones like Bris, Bar/Bat Mitzvahs, and weddings, educating our children in Hebrew school, connecting teens to their heritage, and providing adult Jewish education. <br>
<br>
<strong>Now it is your turn to lead us Forward</strong><br>
                                                                        Gift Planning strengthens Judaism right here in Bensonhurst. Whether it's supporting our Hebrew schools of the Arts, empowering our Cteen Program, offering adult education, helping the needy, making home visitations, or putting up mezuzot, Gift Planning fosters a sense of unity and Jewish pride. Now's your chance to have a real impact. Join us in securing a bright future for our Bensonhurst community through Gift Planning. This is your opportunity to make a difference.</p>
