BOCA RATON, Fla., Jan. 28, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Chazen, Banon, and Miller families, in collaboration with Boca Beach Chabad, proudly announce the launch of the IDF Torah Tribute campaign, dedicated to celebrating the life of the late Jerome Chazen.

Jerome Chazen, a pillar of exceptional philanthropic dedication, has been commemorated through the completion of this Torah, dedicated in the merit of the protection of the soldiers of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). The funds raised from this campaign will be allocated to support the vital operations and programs of Boca Beach Chabad, furthering its mission to strengthen Jewish pride and community both locally and globally.

The Jerome Chazen Legacy Torah, a unifying force for the Jewish people, symbolizes spiritual safety and protection. As our IDF soldiers valiantly defend our nation, each of the 54 sections (Parshas) in this Torah is dedicated to a specific military unit in their honor. You can participate in this noble cause by dedicating a letter, word, or verse, thus contributing to the protection of our brave soldiers.

Boca Beach Chabad, a vibrant hub of Jewish life for a quarter-century, has played a transformative role in East Boca by offering a diverse range of programs and services for Jews of all backgrounds and ages. With a global reach through online educational and music programs, Boca Beach Chabad touches the lives of hundreds of thousands annually. Through The IDF Torah Tribute, the organization continues its commitment to nurturing Jewish identity and sending vital support to our troops in Israel.

Jerome Chazen, who peacefully passed away at his Upper Nyack home on February 6, 2022, at the age of 94, left behind a legacy of philanthropy that impacted numerous charitable causes. In 1976, he co-founded Liz Claiborne Inc., a company that played a pivotal role in redefining women's work attire. The Jerome Chazen Legacy Torah is a fitting tribute to commemorate his extraordinary life and benevolence.

"The Torah, with its 54 Sections (Parshas) dedicated to 54 IDF units, stands as a unifying force that binds us together. It is our beacon of spiritual safety and protection, just as our soldiers safeguard our nation," said Rabbi Ruvi New, spiritual leader of the Boca Beach Chabad. "Through this initiative, we invite individuals from all walks of life to join us in sending spiritual safety and support to our IDF military units."

The Torah will be completed with a gala dinner and community-wide celebration on Thursday, February 22nd, 2024.
