PARENTS

Dear Parent, 

We could only imagine what it's like when your child leaves home for college and we recognize the importance of our role in providing a warm and loving Jewish space where students could celebrate Judaism with joy. We strive to be a home away from home where individuals can deepen their Jewish identity and build lifelong friendships. Please reach out to introduce yourself and let us know if there is anything we could do to be helpful. 

​​​

Best,

Rabbi Yuda and Naomi Drizin

Celebrate your child's birthday!

Let us know your child’s birthday so we could deliver a birthday package to their dorm! Or sponsor a Shabbat dinner in their honor!

Family Events 2025-2026

While parents and family members are always welcome to join their children at Chabad any time they’re visiting campus, we also host special events throughout the year just for you. These dedicated family gatherings offer a unique opportunity to connect, celebrate, and experience Jewish life at Columbia together.
