Since 2003, Illini Chabad has been a home away from home for Jewish students at the University of Illinois and for the wider Champaign-Urbana community. Our doors at 209 E. Armory Avenue are open to every Jew, whatever your background, knowledge or level of observance. Come for a home-cooked Friday Night Live dinner or a Shabbat lunch. Stay for a class, a holiday celebration or a late night in the iNov8 Tech Lounge.
Run by Rabbi Dovid & Goldie Tiechtel, Chabad is where students make lifelong friends, explore their heritage at their own pace, and celebrate every holiday with joy, from a sukkah on the Quad to an Israel trip. There's no membership and no fee. Just come as you are; there's always a seat at the table.
