Chabad Telethon raises $4 million

Hollywood stars and dancing rabbis came together for the 32nd annual Chabad “To Life” Telethon on Sept. 9. Held for the first time at the Saban Theatre in Beverly Hills, the high-profile fundraiser raised approximately $4 million for Chabad of California.

Chasids in the Hood (or Not)

This, for me, is the Chabad genius: a knack on the deed, not the talk. They don\’t get turned on by grand debates that lead to more grand debates.
