Machne Israel (Hebrew: מחנה ישראל) is the social service organization of the Chabad-Lubavitch movement. Its parent organization is Agudas Chasidei Chabad, the central Chabad organization. [1]

Founding

Machne Israel was founded by the 6th Chabad Rebbe, Yosef Yitzchok Schneersohn in May 1941,[2] he remained at the head of the organization until his death in 1950[3] and appointed his son in-law Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneersohn as the chairman of the executive committee.[4][5][6] Rabbi Yehuda Krinsky serves as chairman. The Machne Israel Development Fund was later founded in 1984 in order to help fund and expand Chabad institutions.[7][8][9][10]

Mission

The organization's stated mission is to encourage Torah observance, performance of Mitzvot and bring people back to Teshuva. Additionally, the organization's stated goal is to spread the previous Lubavitcher Rebbe's message of "The quicker to Teshuva, the quicker the redemption (Moshiach) will arrive".

Religious initiatives

Machne Israel has initiated a number of religious initiatives among members of the community.

  • Mishnayos Baal Peh (Memorization of the Mishnah) – The six orders of the Mishnah are divided among the participants via a raffle, with the whole Mishna being completed once a year. At its completion a Siyum celebration takes place.[11]
  • Tehillim Societies – Mahane Israel creates Tehillim societies for the daily saying of psalms as well as enhancing and encouraging the existing ones. These societies work with the Universal Tehillim Society founded in the Old City of Jerusalem.
