Editing Colel chabad (section)

== Early History ==
In 1777, after Chassidim immigrated to the Holy Land, a Holy Land Fund was established to maintain the livelihood of Chassidim in Israel. The fund was managed by the Alter Rebbe, who was the fund's president in Europe. In 1801, a dispute broke out between him and Rabbi Avraham of Kalisk regarding several issues, including the fund's management, which led Rabbi Avraham of Kalisk in 1805 to appoint a new president for the Holy Land Fund and ordered to stop the allocation to Chabad Chassidim. This led to the establishment of a special fund for Chabad Chassidim.

During the time of the Mitteler Rebbe, Colel Chabad's emissaries began distributing home charity boxes. Simultaneously, the Mitteler Rebbe instituted that every Chassid should establish these boxes near their dining table and be careful to put coins in the charity box daily before eating. These boxes were innovative at the time, and following Colel Chabad's boxes, home charity boxes spread throughout the world.
