Chabad-Lubavitch - a Philosophy, a Movement, and an Organization
Chabad-Lubavitch is a philosophy, a movement, and an organization. It is considered to be the most dynamic force in Jewish life today.
The origins of today’s Chabad-Lubavitch organization can be traced to the early 1940s, when the
sixth Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Schneersohn of righteous memory
(1880–1950), appointed his son-in-law and later successor, Rabbi Menachem Mendel, to head the newly founded educational and social service arms of the movement.
Motivated by his profound love for every Jew and spurred by his boundless optimism and self-sacrifice, the Rebbe set into motion a dazzling array of programs, services and institutions to serve every Jew.
Today over
4,500 full-time emissary families
apply 250-year-old principles and philosophy to direct more than 3,500 institutions (and a workforce that numbers in the tens of thousands) dedicated to the welfare of the Jewish people worldwide. One of these institutions is Chabad of Newfoundland.
