TRIBUTE TO THE

L I F E T I M E and V I S I O N of

The Lubavitcher Rebbe

RABBI MENACHEM M. SCHNEERSON of sacred memory

Born in 1902, The Rebbe assumed leadership of the international Chabad-Lubavitch movement in 1950. The legendary results of the initiatives he created and developed have touched the lives of millions of people from all walks of life, helping significantly strengthen and positively alter the landscape of Jewish life the world over.

Chabad-Lubavitch is currently the world’s largest and fastest growing network of Jewish educational and social service institutions, with over 4,000 branches and affiliates in all 50 states and more than 110 countries.

You are invited to join a unique and prestigious program in Washington, DC, which will reflect upon the lifetime of the Rebbe as we seek guidance and inspiration from his teachings and devoted leadership to address the unprecedented challenges of our time.

There will be a special recognition of America’s semi-quincentennial as part of this conference, as we mark the 50th year since the establishment of American Friends of Lubavitch-Chabad (attended by the President of the United States).
