Alpha Epsilon Pi is a Jewish fraternity established in 1913 to provide a Jewish social and cultural organization for Jewish men, but is also "non-discriminatory and open to all who are willing to espouse its purpose and values." A Nu Sigma chapter of Alpha Epsilon Pi at University of Nevada, Las Vegas was chartered in 1968. Sheldon Adelson is an honorary member of the fraternity, and Michael Cherry was a member and two-time president of the chapter at the University of Missouri.
Chabad of Southern Nevada was established in 1990 by Rabbi Shea Harlig and his wife Dina Harlig. It is an outpost of the worldwide Chabad-Lubavitch organization that provides social services and educational programs for members of the Jewish community.
