Chabad of the Airport

50 years ago, in 5727 (1967), on the eve of the Six Day War, the Rebbe launched Mivtza Tefillin (Tefillin campaign), explaining that through fulfilling the Mitzvah of Tefillin, the Jewish people will be secure and protected from their enemies. Soon afterwards, Rabbi Kuti Rapp A"H began his activities in New York's airports—putting on Tefillin with Jewish travelers, assisting them in performing other Mitzvos during holidays and throughout the year, as well as in all areas of Jewish life. Through this work, Rabbi Rapp merited to bring many Jews to the Rebbe, and bring many hearts closer to Torah and Chassidus.

 

Today, two years after R' Kuti's tragic passing, his son Yossi carries on his holy mission and the scope of Chabad of the Airport's activities has and continues to grow each day. Please partner with us to ensure that growth continues at an even faster pace, so Chabad of the Airport can continue to be a light to Jewish travelers until the coming of Moshiach.
