The late Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion made the following speech in 1944 to a gathering of youth in Haifa: “Ours was a tiny nation inhabiting a small country, and there have been many tiny nations and many small countries, but ours was a tiny nation possessed of a great spirit; an inspired people that believed in its pioneering mission to all men, in the mission that had been preached by the prophets of Israel. This people gave the world great and eternal moral truths and commandments. This people rose to prophetic visions of the unity of the Creator with His creation, of the dignity and infinite worth of the individual because every man is created in the divine image, of social justice, universal peace, and love: ‘Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.’ This people was the first to prophesy about ‘the end of days,’ the first to see the vision of a new human society.” Just as Ben-Gurion described, Colel Chabad has kept the vision of preserving the dignity and worth of every individual alive. By caring for the hungry and elderly in Israel, Colel Chabad promotes the commandment of "loving your fellow as yourself."
