Shabbat 180 Hosted by Uptown Chabad a Sold-Out Success

October 2024

By Rabbi Motti Groner

On Aug. 23, the Uptown Chabad hosted a remarkable Shabbat 180 event, drawing over 180 young Jewish professionals to the SpringHill Suites in Uptown Charlotte. The evening was nothing short of spectacular, with a stunning 16th-floor view of Uptown Charlotte, an open bar, and a delicious kosher dinner catered by Kosher Charlotte.

The atmosphere was filled with warmth and inspiration as attendees enjoyed great company and a meaningful Shabbat together. The success of this event was made possible thanks to the generous support of our sponsors.
