Dedication of Binghamton Center Draws Hundreds of Supporters

An estimated 600 Binghamton University students, parents, alumni and faculty celebrated the grand opening of the newly expanded Chabad Center for Jewish Life. The $3.5 million center – finished in record time as part of the fourth capital project of the Chabad House since Rabbi Aaron and Rivkah Slonim arrived as Chabad-Lubavitch emissaries in 1985 – wowed the crowd with a design reflecting one goal: to provide Jewish students with a home away from home.
