His mother Rebbetzin Chana Schneersohn had two sons already, Dovber Schneerson and Yisroel Aryeh Leib Schneerson.Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson (1902 - 1994) https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/rabbi-menachem-mendel-schneerson-jewish-virtual-library Jewish virtual library The Lubavitcher Rebbe was born on April 18 1902 (11 Nisan, 5662), in the Black Sea port of Nikolaev in the Russian Empire (now Mykolaiv in Ukraine).Joseph Telushkin, Rebbe: The Life and Teachings of Menachem M. Schneerson, the Most Influential Rabbi in Modern History. HarperCollins, 2014. Page 455 The Lubavitcher Rebbe would observe the Frierdiker Rebbe's birthday, 12 Tammuz, by visiting the Ohel (the gravesite of the Frierdiker Rebbe) every year. During the Rebbe’s leadership, the Rebbe would observe his birthday, 11 Nisan (as well as 25 Adar, the Rebbetzin’s birthday) as a special day every year by going to the Ohel. In 5712 (the Rebbe’s fiftieth birthday), the Rebbe said a maamar to a group of Chassidim, and in 5722 (the Rebbe’s sixtieth birthday) the Rebbe held a special farbrengen. From 5731 onwards, the Rebbe held a farbrengen or said a sicha each year in connection with Yud-Alef Nisan.February 2018 MIVTZA YOM HULEDES https://derher.org/wp-content/uploads/66-Adar-5778-07.pdf A Chassidisher Derher 66 33 From the beginning of the Rebbe's leadership, it was customary for followers of the Rebbe, mainly students of Tomchei Tmimim to arrange a Yechidut (private audience) with the Lubavitcher Rebbe or write a Pan (personal letter) to him on their Hebrew birthday. After the Lubavitcher Rebbe passed away on June 12, 1994 (3 Tammuz 5754), his followers intensified their celebrations of his birthday, observing it with even greater enthusiasm than when he was alive.2024-04-19 Weekly Dvar Torah: Happy Birthday Rebbe, Happy Birthday Chassidim https://crownheights.info/something-jewish/863718/weekly-dvar-torah-happy-birthday-rebbe-happy-birthday-chassidim/ 2024-10-16 CrownHeights.info en Commemoration Followers of the Lubavitcher Rebbe commemorate his birthday every year on 11 Nisan, recognizing it as a time for reflection on the Rebbe's contributions to Jewish life and his leadership.2017-02-23 The Tisch: Happy Birthday https://elmad.pardes.org/the-maggid-of-melbourne-speaks/hasidic-lore-series/2017/02/the-tisch-happy-birthday/ 2024-10-16 Elmad Pardes's Digital Library en Many followers from around the world visit 770 Eastern Parkway (the headquarters of Chabad as well as the synagogue of the Lubavitcher Rebbe) and the Ohel (the gravesite of the Lubavitcher Rebbe and the Frierdiker Rebbe).2024-04-19 Joyous Farbrengen Celebrates Rebbe's Birthday at 770 https://collive.com/joyous-farbrengen-celebrates-rebbes-birthday-at-770-2 2024-10-16 COLlive en-US Some Chabad followers conduct special gatherings such as rallies and concerts, often attracting thousands of participants.2022-04-14 For their late leader's milestone 120th birthday, Chabad Jews stage a worldwide celebration https://www.jpost.com/j-spot/article-704109 2024-10-16 The Jerusalem Post en 0792-822X On Yud Aleph Nisan of 2004, March 28, a dedication ceremony was held for "Schneerson Square", a co-named section of Pico Boulevard.2004-03-16 Los Angeles to Dedicate Schneerson Square https://www.lubavitch.com/los-angeles-to-dedicate-schneerson-square/ 2026-03-22 Chabad Lubavitch World Headquarters en-US2017-05-24 Crown Heights Street to be Named after Rebbetzin https://crownheights.info/crown-heights-news/578331/crown-heights-street-named-rebbetzin/ 2026-03-22 CrownHeights.info - Chabad News, Crown Heights News, Lubavitch News en Recognition Education and Sharing Day The United States recognizes 11 Nisan as "Education and Sharing Day," In 1978, the U.S. Congress passed a resolution to designate this day in recognition of the Lubavitcher Rebbe's efforts to promote educational values.House The White 2024-04-18 A Proclamation on Education and Sharing Day, USA, 2024 https://bidenwhitehouse.archives.gov/briefing-room/presidential-actions/2024/04/18/a-proclamation-on-education-and-sharing-day-usa-2024/ 2024-11-24 The White House en-US The first proclamation was made by President Jimmy Carter, who acknowledged the Lubavitcher Rebbe’s influence in shaping education.troy Tevi 2024-07-09 Presidents and the Rebbe: A continuing relationship from beyond the grave - opinion https://www.jpost.com/opinion/article-809612 2024-10-16 The Jerusalem Post en Since then, each U.S. president has continued to formally recognize this day.
