Rabbi Levi Danow

Rabbi Levi Danow was born and raised in Gothenburg, Sweden. At the age of 9, he moved with his family to Leeds, England where his parents established a Chabad center for Jewish students at Leeds University. He went on to study in Rabbinical schools in the US, Israel and in the United Kingdom. After completing his studies, he was ordained by Rabbi Yitzchak Yeruslavsky, Chief Rabbi of Kiryat Malachi, Israel.

Rabbi Levi has always been active from a young age volunteering with outreach programs during his yeshiva years and working with Jewish youth.  As a student he would spend his Friday afternoons visiting Jewish shopkeepers sharing with them a Jewish thought or the chance to put on Tefillin. As his studies grew so did his commitment to enriching the lives of Jewish people. As an intern Rabbi, he provided educational programs and holiday events for the Jews in the remote parts of Northern Denmark, across rural Maryland and the Jewish community of Floral Park, NJ. Rabbi Danow has also organized holiday services for Jewish inmates in correctional facilities across the Florida panhandle.
