Growing in kindness. The Rebbe stressed the special importance of supporting tzedakah initiatives such as the Montreal gemach (IK 8574), and encouraged those involved to persist and grow in their work with ever-increasing dedication (IK 9249, 9792).

Special times. He urged expanding acts of kindness with joy at auspicious times connected with redemption (IK 5931), and drew on Chanukah's ever-increasing light as a model for growth in kindness (IK 10034).
