Story

Dancing for Twinning!

I am going to twin my Bat Mitzvah with Mory in Israel, who is having his Bar Mitzvah through the Bar/Bat Mitzvah for Children with Special Needs project (supported in the UK by the New Israel Fund). To see how the scheme works, please watch their very moving video (click 'video' on the left).

 

To raise money, on Sunday 20th February I danced to 100 songs in a day (it was SO tiring). This took about 6 1/2 hours of actual dancing time. I stopped for a short break every couple of hours, but whenever I stopped, the music stopped too. I would be very grateful if you would sponsor me.

 

Mory says:

 

My name is Mory Shitrit. I live in Nahariya and study in the Ilanot Special Education School, also in Nahariya.
    I have 2 sisters. I love to listen to music, especially Sarit Hadad.
    I am excited about my Bar Mitzvah because I love parties with music and dancing and I want to put on tefillin in the synagogue.

 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
