About
Welcome to the Chabad at the University of Maryland.
Our aim is to give meaning, share joy and add spirituality to the every day. Our dream is to teach these values in a warm and nurturing environment where people can grow together, enjoying life and Judaism simultaneously.
Chabad recognizes all, regardless of affiliation, background or levels of observances.
We invite you to explore our site and join in our many programs, celebrations, and events. You will find something for everyone including students, parents, faculty, and local community members.
We look forward to personally welcoming you at Chabad where you will find warmth, wisdom and an all-around great time!

Daily Thought
The sound of the shofar is not the cry of a human voice. It is the howl of an animal’s horn. It is a cry so primal, so raw, that the mind ceases to ponder, the heart suspends its throb. With the fury of a beast pent up in its cage, the naked essence of the soul bursts out, howling, ripping through heaven’s curtains, awakening the primal essence of all being. The raw core of your soul below touches the Primal Essence above, and now their reunion may begin.
