The opening of the Friendship Campus is not just a milestone; it’s a testament to the extraordinary generosity, vision, and dedication of the people who made it possible.
This dream is no longer just an idea—it is a reality because of you. Each of you who believed in this vision, who contributed your time, resources, and passion, has brought us to this moment.
Yes, we are opening the doors to a stunning new campus. But what truly matters is the life-changing work that will happen inside these walls. This will be a place where Jewish children will deepen their faith and knowledge, where they will embrace their heritage and connect with one another. A place where children with special needs and their families will discover a true sense of belonging, supported and uplifted by the Friendship Circle community.
And this will be a place for everyone—a home filled with warmth, connection, and purpose, where individuals from all backgrounds will feel embraced and valued.
This state-of-the-art facility—the first of its kind in Florida—would not exist without your unwavering support. Every detail, from the art room and snoozle room to the Parent Lounge and movement studio, reflects the thought and care that has gone into creating opportunities for growth, joy, and connection.
The Chabad Center at the heart of this campus will enrich the Jewish community, offering a magnificent Sanctuary and Social Hall, a beautiful mikvah, a vibrant preschool, and so much more. It is a place where Yiddishkeit will flourish and where generations will gather, learn, and celebrate together.
This campus is more than just bricks and mortar—it is a living testament to the strength and unity of this remarkable community. To know a community, you learn what it values most. And you, our incredible community, have shown that you value inclusion, connection, and care above all else.
Thank you, G‑d, for blessing us with such a compassionate and generous community. And thank you to the Lubavitcher Rebbe, whose inspiration guided the Rabbi Yossi & Nechama Harlig to establish Chabad and Friendship Circle.
From the bottom of our heart, thank you to everyone who helped bring this dream to life. Our community has created a legacy that will transform lives for generations to come.
