A Special Hebrew School Program for special Children
This is a monthly event wherein the children, volunteers and staff come together for special activities. As they drop their children off in capable hands, moms and dads get to enjoy some free time to themselves.
This weekly program has teenage volunteers spending quality time with children with special needs in the environment the kids are most comfortable and familiar with: their own homes. A unique bond is established between the volunteers and their friends. The range of activities shared can be anything from cookie-baking to arts & crafts, story-time to hide-and-seek.
The Friendship Circle Holiday Programs bring the Jewish Holidays alive for children with special needs and their families. Whether it’s making menorahs for Chankah or a Masquerade party for Purim the Friendship Circle holiday programs are full of excitement action and hands on fun.
The volunteer club invites all the Friendship Circle volunteers to take part in activities including, trips, bowling, training sessions and much more. This is a great opportunity for our many volunteers to get to know each other and share experiences.
