Come to an Event

CYP DoBo (Chabad Young Professionals of Downtown Boca) is a vibrant hub for Jewish young professionals in their 20s and 30s. We host Shabbat dinners, happy hours, business networking, social events, learning opportunities, and meaningful holiday experiences — all in a way that's authentic, fun, and totally non-cringe.

Not at all. We're not here to make you more religious — just more you. Whether you grew up Reform, Conservative, "just Jewish," or are reconnecting now, CYP is a space where you can connect, learn, and belong at your own pace.

Young Jews in their 20s and 30s from Boca, Deerfield, Hollywood, Boynton, and beyond. Lawyers, entrepreneurs, creatives, health-care pros, and everything in between. Some come for the social vibes, some for the spiritual depth — most for both.

  • Shabbat Dinners — Not your average Friday night. Think soulful atmosphere, delicious food, and real conversation.
  • Happy Hours & Socials — A chance to unwind, meet new people, and grow your circle.
  • Learning Opportunities — Courses, classes, and discussions that explore Judaism's wisdom for real life.
  • Holiday Celebrations — From rooftop Sukkahs to Purim parties — we know how to celebrate.
  • Friday Society Hosts — A program where members host Shabbat dinners or happy hours for their friends and peers.

Nope. Events are ticketed individually, and some are free thanks to generous supporters. If you want to help fuel the mission, you can join our Chai Partners Club — a group of monthly supporters who keep CYP DoBo thriving.

We love when people take ownership! You can:

  • Join our leadership board to help shape CYP's future.
  • Partner with us as a donor or sponsor.

Most events are in Downtown Boca, with occasional pop-ups in surrounding areas. You'll always get the address when you RSVP.

Not at all. Almost everyone shows up knowing nobody at some point — and leaves with new friends. Our events are built for that.
