Tenth of Tevet

The Tenth of Tevet, December 27 this year, is a fast day commemorating the beginning of the siege of Jerusalem which ultimately ended in the destruction of the First Holy Temple. The Rebbe advises, "Before and after prayers give charity (in addition to the regular donation), including charity for a sacred cause or institution in the Land of Israel, Eretz HaChaim - the 'Land of the Living.' "
