JCoSS honours Bat Mitzvah twin Ruby

Young Jewish Child's Day supporter, Ruby Rose, has won the "Social Action" award at the JCoSS end of year prize giving celebrations. Ruby received the honour in recognition of all the fantastic volunteering work she has been doing this year.

12 year-old Ruby said, "I was really proud to be chosen for this award. I have enjoyed all the volunteering work I have done this year, and I am very happy to help others and make a difference."

If that wasn't enough, Ruby is also part of the JCD Bat Mitzvah Twinning program and is currently raising money for her twin in Belarus, Lena Tcherepanovа. Thanks to Ruby's fundraising efforts both girls will become Bat Mitzvah in September this year. Without the Bat Mitzvah Twinning program and super kids like Ruby who support it, many children in impoverished Belarus simply wouldn't get the chance to become Bar/Bat Mitzvah.

WELL DONE RUBY!
