Mitzvah tank

Chabad Lubavitch Mitzvah tank in Golders Green, London

A Mitzvah tank is a vehicle used by the Orthodox Jewish practitioners of Chabad-Lubavitch Hasidism as a portable "educational and outreach center" and "mini-synagogue" (or "minagogue") to reach out to non-observant and alienated Jews. Mitzvah tanks have been commonplace on the streets of New York City since 1974.[1][2] Today they are found all over the globe in countries where Chabad is active.[citation needed]
