Brooklyn Jewish Center

Brooklyn Jewish Center The Brooklyn Jewish Center was organized for the purpose of promoting the religious, social, recreational and educational well-being of the Jewish Community.

Today the Center exists as the Educational Institute Oholei Torah, the flagship school of the Chabad - Lubavitch movement with over 1600 students, and its alumni serve Jewish communities across the globe.
