Rabbi Levi and Chanie Fogelman are the co-founders and directors of the Chabad Center.
In the 30+ years since its founding, the Chabad Center has enriched lives of Jewish people across the Metrowest. It first founded the Metrowest Jewish Hebrew Preschool which graduated hundreds of students from towns west of Boston and the Metrowest Camp Gan Israel, originally located in Ashland. They built and founded the Western (take on the "Metrowest") Well Community Mikvah which is used by hundreds of families, annually.
Following the success of their holiday events in towns across the Metrowest, including menorah lighting ceremonies in Natick, Holliston, Sudbury, Wayland, Ashland, etc., the Fogelmans established additional Chabad Centers in Sudbury, Wellesley and Milford.
Today, the Chabad Center continues to be a center for Metrowest Jewish communities and is the headquarters for Chabads of the Metrowest region. Located in Natick, the Chabad Center campus hosts a respectable synagogue, the GEO Jewish After School, a Hebrew School, a branch of the Jewish Learning Institute, a hub for social services, an adult education center and a simcha hall.
Rabbi Levi and Chanie would like to welcome you to meet them, at any time, to discover how you can connect yourself or your family to Jewish life in this area.
There is no time like the present. Give us a call (508-650-1499), or contact via email ([email protected]). You can also message us on social media.
