By Rabbi Yosef B. Friedman Kehot Publication Society
This Shabbos, the 28th of Sivan, marks eighty-five years since the Rebbe and Rebbetzin arrived on the hospitable shores of the United States after narrowly escaping the Nazi onslaught in Europe.
That day marked a turning point in the history of American Jewry — and ultimately of Jewish life throughout the world. Soon after his arrival, the Rebbe began the sacred work of rebuilding and revitalizing post-war Judaism, laying the foundations for a renaissance of Jewish learning, observance, and outreach that continues to this day.

Among the institutions established during those formative years was the Kehot Publication Society, founded to bring the teachings of Torah and Chassidus to the broadest possible audience through the printed word.
Eighty-five years later, that mission continues. Kehot has published millions of volumes that have educated, inspired, and enriched Jewish lives around the globe. This weekly email is but a small reflection of that enduring legacy.
Please help sustain this vital work. In honor of this milestone, I invite you to support the Rebbe's cherished publishing institution by making a contribution today. A particularly meaningful way to participate is through our sponsorship program, which allows you to dedicate a Kehot publication in honor or memory of a loved one.
