== Purpose of the Shlichus == The purpose of the shlichus is to invest in more corners throughout the world, and in more places, to dedicate their time to Torah study, beyond the regular amount. The learning is conducted in the same manner as in all other Tomchei Tmimim yeshivas worldwide, studying Shas and Poskim, nigleh d'Torah and pnimius haTorah. In every free moment from the yeshiva schedule, they engage in hafatzas hamaayanos, activities of spreading Torah and Chassidus, thereby transforming each location into a center for Torah and mitzvos, and a lighthouse for Torah and mitzvos. ==== The Rebbe Rashab ==== The first initiative for a yeshiva in this format began with the Rebbe Rashab when in 1911 he sent a group of bochurim to establish Yeshivas Toras Emes in Chevron. ==== The Rebbe Rayatz ==== In 1946, the [[The Rebbe Rayatz|Rebbe Rayatz]] sent a group of talmidim to Chicago, with Rav Yosef Weinberg serving as mashpia, and Rav Avraham Mordechai Hershberg serving as Rosh Yeshiva, along with five other bochurim who joined as students, including Reb Yehuda Leib Groner. Over the years, the Rebbe would send talmidim to various yeshivas to serve as shluchim in matters of Torah study and to increase the light of Torah. In 1956, following the tragic murder at the vocational school in Kfar Chabad, the Rebbe sent a group of about ten bochurim to strengthen the residents of Kfar Chabad and to speak to the hearts of [[Eretz Yisroel]]'s residents about Torah and mitzvos. ==== The Shlichus to Lod Yeshiva ==== In 1962, the Rebbe sent the first group whose main purpose was to study at the yeshiva in Lod. ==== The Shlichus to Brunoy ==== In Adar Rishon 1962, the Rebbe sent a group of six talmidim to Yeshivas Tomchei Tmimim in Brunoy, France, including Reb Shimon Lazaroff. The Rebbe came out to escort the group members when they left for the port, and sent a letter to the group members almost every month. The purpose of the shlichus was to accompany students from Morocco and Tunisia who were sent to the yeshiva by the Rebbe's shluchim in their countries of origin, and to assist them in their first steps in yeshiva. Additionally, the Rebbe instructed that every second Shabbos, 2 of the group members should travel to nearby towns to influence anash and local Jews, and requested consistent and detailed reports. ==== The Shlichus to Australia ==== With the establishment of the yeshiva in 1966, the Rebbe decided to send special shluchim in 1967, who would stay there for two consecutive years. The Rebbe addressed this shlichus in many sichos and places with extra seriousness and reverence. In 2009, a book titled "V'Nichb'sha Ha'aretz" was published describing the chain of events until today. ==== The Shlichus to Miami ==== The expanded topic - Yeshiva Gedolah Miami In 1974, a group of bochurim were sent to establish the Yeshiva Gedolah in Miami. They formed the body of the yeshiva, and it was the first yeshiva established by the Rebbe. ==== The Shlichus to Kfar Chabad ==== In 1975, a group of bochurim were first sent to the yeshiva in Kfar Chabad. ==== The Shlichus to New Haven ==== They were sent to establish the yeshiva. ==== The Shlichus to Johannesburg ==== They were sent to establish the yeshiva. ==== The Shlichus to Seattle ==== Established in 1976 by Talmidim Hashluchim from Tomchei Tmimim yeshivas in Morristown and Ohel Torah who were chosen by the Rebbe. The expanded topic - Yeshiva Gedolah Seattle Washington ==== The Shlichus to Caracas ==== In 1977, a group of bochurim were sent to establish the yeshiva in Caracas, Venezuela. The expanded topic - Tomchei Tmimim Venezuela (Caracas) ==== The Shlichus to Kiryat Gat ==== In Nissan 1978, the yeshiva administration in Kiryat Gat approached the Kvutza students requesting them to come on shlichus to the yeshiva in Kiryat Gat, which was experiencing difficulties at the time. After deliberation, five tmimim decided to ask the Rebbe's opinion, and the response was: "To follow the advice of the Tomchei Tmimim administration in Eretz HaKodesh." The Tomchei Tmimim Kfar Chabad administration instructed them to go for a trial period until Tisha B'Av of that year. When Tisha B'Av arrived, the group members wanted to return to the yeshiva in Kfar Chabad, but in response to a routine report they wrote to the Rebbe, he answered: "To the students learning in Tomchei Tmimim in Kiryat Gat." This response removed all doubt and explained to them where their place was. ==== The Shlichus to Sydney ==== They were sent to establish the yeshiva. ==== The Shlichus to Casablanca ==== In Elul 1982, the Rebbe sent eight tmimim from Chabad Yeshiva Ohel Torah on shlichus to the Chabad yeshiva in Casablanca. The expanded topic - Tomchei Tmimim Casablanca ==== Yeshivas with Special Attention ==== Over the years, the Rebbe sent and encouraged shluchim who traveled to many other yeshivas, and they received special attention. The yeshiva in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Milan, Italy. London, England. And more.
