If you want to be technical about it, Alexis isn’t my niece–she’s the daughter of one of my three first cousins. But she calls me “Auntie Erika,” and I love her to pieces. Which is why I’m so proud to share the project she has undertaken prior to being called to the Torah as a Bat Mitzvah.
In her own words:
Please sign up for my ProjectSave18 group. This is my Mitzvah Project and starting April 1, I will be posting facts about organ and tissue donation daily.

Please help me spread the word by this cause by joining my group and sharing with all of your Facebook friends.

“But it’s Thursday,” you’re saying!

See you all next week.
