I am so lucky I had the opportunity to participate in the Friendship Circle’s Mitzvah Volunteer Program (MVP).

My peers and I trained to volunteer at LifeTown, the Friendship Circle’s new, state of the art facility. LifeTown was built to teach the Friendship Circle’s special needs children life skills so important to their future growth. On Monday afternoons I volunteer in a sports program, there’s nothing I love more than playing sports and helping others learn to play as well.

In honor of my becoming a Bar Mitzvah, I’m raising money to help with sports programming at Life Town. Every child should have the opportunity to play sports, especially children with special needs. Please help me give this gift to children in our community. Thank you so much,

Lukas Kaplan
