Creating a seviva
of goodness.

A seviva is an environment — the air a community breathes. We build one of warmth, Torah and simple human kindness, and we open it to every Jew.

About RY Chabad

Jewish life for the mind, heart and soul.

RY Chabad is a home for every Jew — a place to learn, to celebrate, to be looked after, and to belong. There are no memberships and no dues. There is a warm room, an open door, and people who are genuinely glad you came.

We began with a simple teaching: a chosid doesn't wait for the right environment, he makes one. Everything we do — the holidays, the weekly Torah classes, the Shabbat dinners, the families quietly helped before Yom Tov — is that one idea, lived out.

Creating a seviva

What you'll find here.

A chosid doesn't wait for the right environment — he makes one. This is what ours looks like, week to week. Every part of it is open to every Jew, no background required and no dues.

Shabbat & Holidays

Shabbat meals with room for whoever walks in, and holiday programming for youth and families all year round.

Children's Holiday Events

Big, joyful community celebrations — 300 and more at a time. For many children it's their first taste of a Yom Tov done right.

What's coming up

Food for Families

Before every Yom Tov we make sure families who are struggling can celebrate properly — quietly, with dignity, no one asked twice.

How to help

Community & Care

A visit in the hospital, a shiva minyan, a bris, a wedding, or simply someone to talk to. We're there for the whole of Jewish life.

Reach out

Get Involved

Sponsor a Shabbat dinner, dedicate a class, volunteer at an event, or partner with us monthly. The seviva is built by everyone in it.

Upcoming

What's happening.

Holidays, classes, and Shabbat — everything is free and everyone is welcome.

Everything is free and open to all. Just come — or let us know you're coming so we set a place.

What we are

A seviva isn't something you join. It's something you walk into — and find that you were already welcome.

0+ Children and parents at a single holiday celebration
Weekly Torah classes, several times over, for every level
Every Jew Welcome at our table — no exceptions, no questions

Around the table, there is always room for one more.

The seviva is built one Shabbat, one class, one holiday, one act of kindness at a time. It is built by everyone who shows up — and by everyone who makes sure the door stays open.

This Shabbat

Light the candles. Come to the table.

Every week the seviva has a beginning: eighteen minutes before sunset, two candles, and a table with room for you. Shabbat and every Yom Tov — if you've never done it before, this is the week to start, and we'd love to have you for the meal.

None of this runs on its own.

Every class, every Shabbat table, and every family looked after before Yom Tov is made possible by people who decided this seviva was worth building. Be one of them.
