About

Once again the Chabad of the Lehigh Valley will be producing its unique, annual Jewish Community Calendar. The calendar has received rave reviews and families have requested copies throughout the year. The calendar includes the secular as well as Jewish dates, along with the popular engaging pages and detailed information about upcoming holidays, educational messages and Shabbat & Holiday candle lighting times. The date boxes are quite practical with ample room for recording family appointments.

What you may not know is that Chabad of the Lehigh Valley – while connected to the worldwide network of Chabad Lubavitch in affiliation and spirit – is a completely independent non-profit organization. We are responsible for every penny of our budget, and raise it completely from generous donors and supporters.

One of our main annual fundraisers is the beautiful Jewish Community Calendar currently being prepared. It contains all of the Jewish holidays, as well as information on programming for the coming year. It gets mailed to our entire mailing list , as well as supporters and friends in the broader community.

Right now, we need your help to make it happen. Please strongly consider participating with your birthday announcement, yarhrzeits, birthdays or anniversaries of your friends and family, etc. By doing so, you will be helping us keep alive the vibrant beat of Jewish life here at Chabad of the Lehigh Valley for the coming year.

There are two ways for you to participate:

Personal Announcements. It is really special for us to include in the calendar birthdays and anniversaries of our community and their friends and families, as well as other notable dates and Yahrtzeits. These announcements help ensure that we’ll be able to celebrate with you when your special day gets here, and the support of Chabad’s activities is a meaningful way to mark the date.

So whether you’re marking your own or inviting your family and friends to do so, make sure you don’t get left out.

Advertisements. As noted, the calendar reaches thousands of people affiliated with the Lehigh Valley Jewish community, and proudly hangs on many a wall throughout the entire year. It’s a great way to advertise your business to a really key market demographic, all at competitive prices.

Please feel free to encourage friends and family to advertise, and help provide the funding for the calendar and the important programming throughout the year.

We hope you will choose to participate in this important endeavor.
