Mazel Tov to Nora Scully of Bakersfield, CA on becoming a bat mitzvah and kicking off a life of tzedakah with a big donation to Charley’s Fund! In her speech, Nora included a shameless plug for the foundation. I’m sure she won’t mind if anyone out there plagiarizes so if you are preparing for your big day, feel free to cut and paste these lines into your speech! “In honor of my bat mitzvah, I have taken on the mitzvah of tzedakah, which is “charity” in English. I would like to donate a portion of what I have received for my bat mitzvah to Charley’s Fund. If you would like to find out more information about how you can support this wonderful group that is dedicated to fighting DMD, you can go to charleysfund.org, or talk to my family this afternoon.” Thank you Nora for your generous contribution, and for letting the world know how you feel about us!
