As soon as Yom Tov was over, with the horrific news about the terror attacks in Israel beginning to spread, a group of bochurim quickly sprang into action.
Heeding the Rebbe’s call during times of crisis in Israel, a fleet of Mitzvah Tanks was quickly organized, to head out into New York City to bring joy, light, and courage to fellow Jews, and offer as many people as possible the chance to do a Mitzvah in the merit of our brothers in Israel.
Bochurim busily worked to reserve 10 trucks and arranged for signs, loudspeakers, and volunteers to turn each of the trucks into a Mitzvah Tank.
In under 12 hours, the entire fleet was arranged and ready to go.
As soon as they were all ready, the trucks lined up and headed straight to Manhattan.
The bochurim spread out throughout New York City, bringing joy and light to all they encountered.
The organizers plan to send the Mitzvah Tanks out every day for the near future, and have created a WhatsApp group to coordinate when the mitzvah tanks go out every day and where they will be going. They encourage everyone to join. Click here to join a WhatsApp group to volunteer for Mivtzoim.
Special thanks are given to the LYP group for making it all happen.
