A few hundred philanthropists and community leaders will gather this coming weekend in Davos, Switzerland for a closed exclusive Shabbos with the Gerrer Rebbe . The price for their participation? Each will have paid at least $100,000, with some participants spending twice that amount. The event will take place in the exclusive Intercontinental Hotel from Thursday, 4 Iyar to Sunday, 7 Iyar.
The weekend is being hosted by Alish Englander of London, a major supporter of the Gerrer Chassidus.
The Rebbe left for Switzerland on Sunday, 30 Nissan, and will remain there until after the special Shabbos.

wow! so to get close to the Gerrer rebbe you really have to be made of gelt!
Not bad, a cool $20 million [at minimum] for one fundraiser!
Is it worth $100,000 to be up front and close to the holiest man on earth? You bet it is. Of course 90% of these people will get to see the Rebbe Shlita about as much as they would at a regular shabbos in Ger absolutely free. But its the whole concept idea of being at a special shabbos.
I assume the money will be going to aniyim and yeshivos.
im sure moshe rabbainu didnt charge this much
come to me i only charge 50k
