About
When Chabad of Waukesha opened its doors in 2012, it joined over 3500 independently run centers that are dedicated to carrying out the Rebbe's legacy. From Shanghai to Kishinev, from Alaska to Zaire, the Rebbe's shluchim (emissaries) and their families continue to realize the Rebbe's foremost objective: to bring the joy and celebration of Judaism to each and every Jew, and thereby to the entire world.
Inspired by the Rebbe, Chabad of Waukesha's guiding principles is Ahavas Yisroel, unconditional love for every individual. We are dedicated to providing each and every Jew in Waukesha regardless of background or degree of commitment the opportunity to discover and experience the beauty of our shared heritage in a warm, welcoming and non-judgemental environment.

Daily Thought
On Simchat Torah we dance with our feet, not with our heads.
We are celebrating the Torah, and the Torah is something we study with our heads. But we dance with our feet, not with our heads.
If we would dance with our heads, each one would dance a different dance, each in a different space, some with friends but not with others, some as lonesome souls.
One head is higher, one is lower, one is here on earth, the other in the clouds or beyond, and some minds know only their own space that no one else can know.
But we dance with our feet, and all our feet are here on the same earth—none higher and none...
