Chabad of Jamaica

Chabad House

Chabad House in Montego Bay, , led by Rabbi Yaakov Y. Raskin.

Jamaica is one of the most popular and beautiful islands in the Caribbean with hundreds of thousands of Jewish visitors coming each year and a few hundred Jews living on the Island.

We established the first Chabad in Jamaica with a Jewish Welcome Center to service the spiritual and physical needs of the Jewish visitors to the Island as well as the local Jewish population.

Our goal: is to strengthen Jewish awareness and pride for the Jewish residence, and the thousands of visitors to Jamaica, regardless of background or affiliation. To spread acts of goodness and kindness to all humanity!
