Yeshivos from around the world are gearing up for an exciting parade as the date for the annual Mitzvah Tank Parade has been announced. This year, the parade will take place on Thursday, March 30th, Ches Nissan. As Yud Alef Nissan, falls on a Sunday this year, the Mitzvah Tank Office has decided to hold the parade a few days prior in honor of Hakhel.
Organizers say that Sunday would have limited exposure to the Mitzvah Tanks and therefore special arrangements are being made for the parade to be held the Thursday earlier.
A 48-hour Raisethon campaign is set to take place this Wednesday and Thursday, aiming to generate support and funding for the parade.
Join this momentous occasion and contribute to help ensure that the Mitzvah Tank Parade is a resounding success and that thousands of Yidden receive matzah for Pesach.
Mark your calendars for Thursday, March 30th, Ches Nissan, and prepare to witness the vibrant display of Achdus and love for the Rebbe as the Mitzvah Tank Parade makes its way through the streets, inspiring the souls of all who encounter it.
but surely sunday is 11 nissan itself, lots of tourists, and less traffic to close off and manuever?
The work force in Manhattan is much more Jewish than the tourists. And there are still plenty of tourists out on Thursday.
if you dont think theres plenty of jews out on a sunday, then youre mistaken. definitely a higher percentage of jews who probably know less about yiddishkeit.
The Rebbe didnt move the 18 iyar parade to a sunday when it wasnt on a sunday.
11 nissan is 11 nissan the Rebbes kochos will help find the jews on that day.
alos traffic factor, tanks will be able to reach much more places 😉
May we all continue to fulfill The Rebbes Vision in igniting Jewish Souls however far they may be
