The Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia
mobilizes financial and volunteer resources to
address the communities’ most critical priorities
locally, in Israel and around the world.

Meaningful Bar and Bat Mitzvah Project
Opportunities

YOU’VE SET THE DATE. Your child is working on their Torah
portion. You’ve called the caterer. But hang on: There’s still some-
thing important left to do before a bar or bat mitzvah.

Many synagogues ask their b’nai mitzvah students to participate
in a community service project that is meaningful to them, as a
personalized way of reinforcing lessons about communal responsi-
bility and tzedakah. That often leaves parents wondering: How do I
help my child find a meaningful bar or bat mitzvah project?

When choosing a project, start with something your child is
passionate about, or naturally gravitates toward. Then take a look at
our Jewish Federation’s community volunteer resource guide, where
each mitzvah opportunity can be turned into a rewarding bar or bat
mitzvah project. For example, is your child is interested in:

• Feeding the hungry? Take shifts at our Mitzvah Food Program’s To browse our full list of volunteer opportunities near you, visit
five pantry locations; pack food with the Jewish Relief Agency. jewishphilly.org/volunteer. And mazel tov!

• Helping older adults? Be a big help doing small chores through
the Northeast NORC or pay a friendly visit to the residents of
Abramson Center for Jewish Life.

• Supporting people with disabilities? Make new special needs
friends through the kid-oriented Friendship Circle; pitch in with
art and cooking projects at JFCS Brodsky Center.

• Social justice? Take action with Repair the World or bake to
raise money and awareness with Challah for Hunger.

• Preserving Jewish legacy? Help maintain our historic Jewish cemeteries with a cleanup
day or arrange to meet an actual Holocaust survivor and keep their stories alive.

Jewish Philly Podcast Episode 23:
Roberta Kaplan and Amy Spitalnick

IT’S JANUARY 2020 — a new decade. And we’re talking about all things
civil rights, starting with a conversation about the recent Jewish Federation
Civil Rights Mission in Georgia and Alabama, followed by a conversa-
tion about reporting Jewishly as a non-Jew with Jewish Exponent reporter
Eric Schucht.

Our Jewish Gem this month is famed attorney and social justice
activist Roberta Kaplan, who argued for marriage equality before the
Supreme Court and founded the Times Up Legal Defense Fund. We had
the incredibly opportunity to interview Kaplan, along with fellow guest
Amy Spitalnick, to discuss their organization, Integrity First for America,
and its work to take white nationalist and neo-Nazi groups involved in the
Charlottesville rally to court.
