OVERVIEW
Friendship Circle NYC presents a unique Mitzvah Project for girls ages 11 - 13 years old in honor of their Bat Mitzvah. A fun and meaningful opportunity to give back and make a difference in the lives of kids with special needs.
A PEEK AT THE PROJECT
Mitzvah Project participants will plan and run an exciting Sunday carnival for children with special needs. They’ll create fun carnival booths, bake treats for snack, pack goodie bags to send home, and more. It’s a hands-on way to spread joy and make a meaningful impact on the children of Friendship Circle!
HOW DO I JOIN THE PARTY?
All Mitzvah Project participants will have their very own custom-made fundraising page, allowing the young philanthropists to invite family and friends to support their volunteer efforts by contributing to the cause (view last year's project). The fundraising minimum for the Mitzvah volunteer project and carnival is $1000/person.
DATES
Fall 2025 Dates TBD
For a Mitzvah project to go ahead, a minimum of 5 project participants is required. If the listed volunteer dates don’t work for you, no worries! Friendship Circle can explore alternative dates. Let us know what works for you/your group and we'll try to make it happen.
*If a member of the mitzvah volunteer project would like to continue volunteering after the project ends, they can happily do so at Friendship Circle holiday programs and at the seasonal Friendship Circle camps.
