Donate to contribute to Anna's Mitzvah project and to help save Pandas!

As we get closer to Anna's Bat Mitzvah we wanted to share part of Anna's Mitzvah project here on Anna's Bat Mitzvah page! The amount collected so far on her Panda Page doesn't actually reflect all she has currently raised as last year Anna sold a huge number of rainbow loom bracelets as well for this cause which will get added to the total soon! We appreciate any contributions to her cause and thank you in advance. We are very proud of her!

THERE YOU GO! That's all I am saying about that!

Update :) From Anna



Hey everybody! 

My bat mitzvah is just in 5 months!!

I am really excited! I have been tutoring, and doing animal related things to help out, like the first thing I did. I raised money for the NG big cats initiative and raised 60 dollars by selling my home made stuffed lions!

Then I raised money for the endangered giant pandas through WWF and raised a lot of money! 
(And if you want to help me with my panda mission, here is my panda page where you can donate online!!)

Then I am doing something else animal related! I get the money from this, but I have a job! My next door neighbor is a firefighter, and every three days he goes on 24 hour shifts, but he has a Jack Russel named Jackson who needs someone to watch him! So every three days I go next door, fill up his food and water, let him out, and play with him a few times!

So you can see I am doing well in that aspect!


And then there is HEBREW.

I am tutoring!

So far I have done:

3 verses of my torah portion

Eilu D'varim

V'havta

My tallit blessing

and part of the morning blessings!



I have a lot to go, but I am on a GREAT start!!


MORE SOON!
