OVERVIEW The purpose of the Chabad at McGill Capital Campaign is to expand and renovate our existing building to better serve the 5,000 Jewish students at McGill. The amount of space, as well as the condition and functionality of the facility was barely meeting the needs of our students, and certainly not a fitting or attractive space to house a place as special and established as the McGill Chabad House.

With the exception of the basic skeletal structure and the historic facade, the space is completely new. Thank G-d, the renovations are almost complete, and we plan to move and inaugurate the new centre next fall. As this report indicates, we have made great strides in financing the construction, and are now entering the final phase of the campaign.

The opening of the new centre will have a dramatic impact on the quality and quantity of our programs: Chabad at McGill will now be able to serve many more students more often, and we will have the space and flexibility to innovate new and exciting programs. We look forward to your continued friendship and partnership in ushering in a new era for Jewish life at the McGill University community.
