My Nonprofit Reviews

WJCS brings developmentally disabled adults to my temple, Westchester Reform Temple, twice a year for different celebrations. Watching these adults enjoy a show, have singing opportunities, a chance to socialize with teenage congregants, and taste and savor appropriate foods warms anyone's heart. It is one of the most endearing activities anyone can be part of. WJCS Havorah program allows these developmentally disabled adults to experience such wonderful and varied programs. I myself volunteer to organize and run one of these celebrations. It is one of the most important things I feel I do. I have even befriended three of these developmentally disabled adults making sure they attend as many of the outings as possible. One of my greatest pleasures is to plan a party for these special lovely adults. I am also the Director of a Day Care Center. Many preteenages come from WJCS to my center to do their Mitzvah project for their Bar/Bat Mitzvah. Giving these preteenagers a chance to be with young children from low income families and to do a Mitzvah would not be possible without WJCS recommending them to my center. The children at the center LOVE when these youngsters come to play with them, give them attention and talk to them. It is a win-win situation.
