He was the first to initiate the home charity boxes (tzedakah boxes) that are common today in every Jewish home. At the beginning of his leadership, he increased and expanded contributions to Kollel Chabad by distributing home charity boxes through emissaries (shadarim), and the money that accumulated in these boxes was collected periodically by the messengers. The heads of other kollelim who were active during that same period saw the great success and began to imitate the idea, and within a short time, home charity boxes spread throughout the world.

The Mitteler Rebbe established the field of Chabad musical tradition by organizing a choir of the Mitteler Rebbe's chassidim, known as "the Kapelye," which operated in his court and engaged in singing and composing deep niggunim (melodies) in the spirit of Chabad Chassidus. Additionally, it is told that there were times when he would command some of his chassidim who were designated for this purpose to ride horses, with the Kapelye playing music in the background, while the Mitteler Rebbe watched them. One of the riders was his son, Rabbi Menachem Nachum, who once fell from the horse and fainted.
