Rabbi Moshe Kotlarsky, a prominent figure in Chabad-Lubavitch and vice chairman of Merkos L'Inyonei Chinuch, passed away at 74, leaving a significant legacy in expanding Chabad's global outreach through establishing Chabad Houses worldwide, including on over 230 campuses through the Chabad on Campus International Foundation.

Rabbi Moshe Kotlarsky, a key figure in Chabad-Lubavitch's global outreach efforts, passed away at 74 after battling cancer.

The Chabad community has been divided for decades over whether Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the seventh Lubavitcher Rebbe, who passed away in 1994, could be the awaited Messiah.

The Chabad movement stands out as a prominent presence in Canadian cities with their numerous Chabad houses, menorahs, and outreach activities, even attracting non-Orthodox Jews.
