Chaim and Nechama Hershkowitz laud Bnos Menachem for including their daughter Mussia (who has spina bifida and hearing loss) in the Bnos Menachem Day Camp where she participated in a wide range of activities, made lots of friends and had a rewarding summer experience.
Mussia, who is charming and amicable, bonded immediately with the girls who were eager to have her as part of the bunk.
Now, Mussia joins Bnos Menachem every Sunday and her classmates love having her around because of her infectious enthusiasm, good disposition and positive attitude.
This has been beneficial to the Hershkowitz family, knowing that Mussia is in a warm, frum environment, and of course to Mussia who is embraced and adored by her peers.
Today, Bnos Menachem is reaching for $500,000.00 in their annual matchathon fundraiser to help their scholarship fund. Please donate. Every dollar is doubled and every dollar goes to a very good cause.

Beautiful and moving! Thanks for sharing and give what you can so we can make this world a better place for everyone 🙂
Doesn’t Ohelie Torah and ULY offer inclusion for boys?
More then giving to Mussia and family, Bnos Menachem is giving the unique opportunity for their students to gain and learn so much from this beautiful inclusion experience!
I agree with #2 whole heartedly. I am so moved by this story!
This is the way it should be. The way the Rebbe would want us to behave.
Mussia, you have wonderful parents. May Hashem bless you with continued joy in your life.
Why is their no boys school that would accommodate special needs children as well?
oh they are so super cute !!!
This is awesome!!! Great for parents who believe in their children no matter what. Her parents made the right decision, we just need to provide support and unconditional love and our children will transform that into confidence and will open for themselves a world of possibilities!
Thank you Bnos Menacehm!
