בבקר קודם התפלה ירים כל אחד תרומה להענינים השייכים לנשיאנו, הוא כ“ק מו”ח אדמו“ר הכ”מ, בעד עצמו ובעד כל אחד מבני ביתו שיחיו, וכן קודם תפלת מנחה (ממכתב כ“ק אדמו”ר ראש חודש שבט, תשי“א)

ביום היארצייט דכבוד קדושת אדמו”ר מורי וחמי אביע תקותי שעושה כת“ר ויעשה גם בעתיד כל שביכלתו לבסס הריליז טיים לילדי ישראל במחנו, ענין שבעל היארצייט השתדל בו ביותר והפציר בכל אחד להשתדל בזה, והרי דברי צדיקים קיימים. וגדול זכות כל השתדל בזה ובפרט רב בעדתו. (אגרות קודש חלק כ”ד ד’ ס“ב, י’ שבט תשכ”ו)

In the morning, before prayer, each person should donate to the causes connected to our Nassi, my revered father-in-law. One should donate for himself and on behalf of each member of his family. The same should be done before Minchah. (Letter of the Rebbe for Yud Shevat 5711 -1951)

On the day of the yahrzeit of the Rebbe, my teacher, my father-in-law, I express my hope that he has done and will continue to do everything in his ability to establish Release Time for Jewish children in his community. It is something which the one whose Yar Tzeit it is something that the Frierdiker Rebbe worked diligently and encouraged others to be involved in it. The words of the Tzadikim stand forever. Great is the merit for anyone who puts their effort into it, especially one who is a rabbi in his community. (Telegram – Yud Shevat 5726 -1966)
