Sarasota County has enjoyed exponential growth in year-round population, tourism, business opportunities and employment in the past decade. Likewise, the Jewish community has grown and expanded tremendously.

 

Chabad is in the center of that expansion. we have broadened our outreach by opening 4 branches (Sarasota, Bradenton East, Bradenton West & Venice) which serves the Sarasota-Manatee counties with a full line of services that are geared toward the local community as well as the vacationers.
