Over the years, David and Chontal Ulmer have witnessed the incredible impact of Colel Chabad through its various programs and events. One particularly unforgettable experience occurred during their son Jaren’s bar mitzvah amidst the challenges of COVID. Although they initially planned to celebrate in Israel, circumstances changed. Then, Zalman from Colel Chabad extended a unique invitation—to come to Israel for 36 hours and experience something truly special.
Colel Chabad organizes bar mitzvah celebrations for boys who have lost a parent. These celebrations include a ceremony at the Kotel with dancing, Torah readings, and joyous singing, followed by a lavish, multi-course dinner with top-tier entertainment. The Ulmers were deeply moved by the smiles, joy, and dignity Colel Chabad brought to each child and their family. It was not simply an act of charity—it was a moment of luxury, love, and respect.
David and Chontal Ulmer remain in awe of Colel Chabad’s tireless work to restore hope and joy to those in need. From bar mitzvahs to retreats and holiday activities, Colel Chabad continues to uplift families, helping them build a brighter future filled with happiness and prosperity.
