From the moment they were born, Olivia and Rebecca have shared a special bond. Best friends since birth and both from Long Island, New York, they have celebrated every milestone side by side. Olivia has a passion for ballet, while Rebecca loves playing tennis, but what they cherish most is the friendship they have been blessed to grow up with.
As they celebrate their Bat Mitzvahs, they wanted their mitzvah project to reflect the Jewish values of kindness, compassion, and giving. Together, they chose to support Lev LaLev Orphanage in Netanya, Israel, an organization that provides a loving home, hope, and opportunities for orphaned and vulnerable children.
Olivia and Rebecca know how fortunate they are to be surrounded by loving families, wonderful friends, and a supportive community. Their dream is to help girls who may not have those same blessings experience the joy of feeling loved, valued, and never alone. They hope to bring smiles, create opportunities, and remind these children that there are people around the world who truly care about them.
Your generosity is more than a donation—it is a gift of hope, love, and a brighter future. Thank you for being part of Olivia and Rebecca’s Bat Mitzvah journey and for helping them make a meaningful difference in the lives of children who need it most.
