Our Mitzvah Project:
Our Mitzvah Project was to help raise awareness, to donate wish list items and to raise funds for one of our favorite places, CAMP HARLAM!
Camp Harlam is truly our home away from home. We have been attending overnight camp in Kunkletown, PA for the past few summers, and it has molded each of us into who we are today. We have gained lifelong friendships, strong Jewish values and confidence.
We love Camp Harlam so much that we wanted to support them for our Mitzvah Project. We worked with the staff to curate a special list of necessities to enhance camper and staff experiences. Throughout each summer, "Camper Free Choice" is offered, where campers have the opportunity to choose their own schedule for a day. Everyone gets the opportunity to try new activities and also revisit old favorites.
We created an Amazon Wish List and had these items delivered to our home. We then sorted and categorized all of these items and worked with the Camp Harlam staff to coordinate pick-up and drop-off of the wish list donations. It was so heartwarming to see our fellow campers enjoying themselves this summer with our Mitzvah Projects donations.
Thank you to everyone who supported our project! Sydnie and Ani Special Thanks:
We would like to thank each one of you for attending our service and supporting us on our special day. We would also like to thank our Camp Harlam tutors for helping us prepare, study, and practice our Torah portions even at overnight camp.
We would also like to show gratitude towards all of our Mensch Lab Teachers we've had over the years at Beth Am. They have helped us learn Jewish values and prepare us for this big day. We are extremely grateful to the clergy, including Rabbi Tornberg for helping us write this D’var Torah, Rabbi Leib for guiding this beautiful service today, and especially to Cantor Zarkh. Cantor has been helping us prepare for this big day for a long period of time. She has also been such a positive help in this experience. _________________________________________________
I would like to thank Sydnie. If you didn’t already know Sydnie is my “cool” older sister. She has been such an amazing help to me. She helped me study, prepare, and get ready for this day. I don’t know what I would do without her. She is caring, kind, very helpful, outgoing, and is crazy in a good way. She inspires me to do my best every day, thanks Syd.
Love, Ani _________________________________________________
I would also like to thank my sister Ani. She has been such a great help in studying for our B’not Mitzvah. I really appreciate her and would do anything for her. I'm so proud of her and everything she has accomplished in this short period of time. I love her so much, and she means the world to me.
We've saved the most special thank you for last. This one goes out to our amazing parents, Jaime and Jeff Zucker. They have been super supportive throughout this whole process. They have supported us by making us study until we learned every single prayer and pushed us to our limits for this day. We are so grateful to have them as Jewish role models in our lives. We don't know what we would do without them. From all of the Hebrew lessons they drove us to, to all of the religious holidays they have hosted, to all of the party prep and for guiding us through the journey to becoming young Jewish adults. We love them to the moon and back and can't picture a more fun, crazy, and adventurous life than the one we have with them.
