In 1987, Chabad of Mid-Hudson Valley opened its doors, first operating out of a private home, then a storefront, until the purchase of the present property at 63 Vassar Road.
18 years ago, a state of the art Mikvah was built at these premises. Thousands of kosher Mezuzahs were affixed on Jewish homes and dozens of pairs of Tefillin were distributed. Many homes were koshered. Torah classes, Hebrew School, women’s & children’s holiday events, all with the intention of bringing fellow Jews closer to their G-d given heritage. Many brissin were also held at the Chabad house, as well as Bar and Bat Mitzvahs.
The building of the Mikvah took up lots of space, making the area of the Shul & social hall very small. For the past few years, Services are being held upstairs which cannot accommodate very many people. The Hebrew School has outgrown the current space and they do not have any room to grow. Chabad has simply outgrown its present space for quite a long time. Chabad has thus undertaken to build an addition to the present location which will include a new Shul, a social hall and office space. They believe that this is the only way to bring in more people, especially young families with children and have the new Shul & Center be a home and a haven for so many Jews who are searching for their roots.
