ABOUT CHABAD-LUBAVITCH
Following its inception 250 years ago, the Chabad-Lubavitch Chassidic philosophy and movement grew exponentially – providing Jews of all backgrounds answers that eluded them, a love that had been denied them, and a community that had been awaiting their arrival.
After the Holocaust, under the direction of Rabbi Yosef Yitzchaak Schneerson and his successor, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, of righteous memory, Chabad became a worldwide movement, caring for the spiritual and material needs of all Jews, wherever they could be found.
Today, Chabad reaches every corner of the world with over 3,500 Chabad institutions located in more than 85 countries – and a new center opening on the average every ten days. Chabad has become the most dynamic and dominant force within the Jewish community.
