Teen entrepreneur Nina Schottenstein resides in Florida and is the owner of Sweet Nina’s, where she locally sells her handmade kosher confections.
Nina says she looks forward to partnering with the global Jewish Girls Unite community as a baking instructor in JGU Creative Online Camp, which runs July 5 through August 12.
Featuring a variety of unique recipes, the baking program is divided into three sessions:
Wednesday, July 7 at 6:45 pm ET;
Sunday, July 11 at 12:00pm ET;
and Wednesday, July 14 at 6:45 pm ET.
Participation is free and registration is open HERE for the complete series, which is dedicated to the loving memory of Nina’s cousin, Hadassah Lebovic (bat Schneur Zalman).
Nina recalls: “Hadassah was a talented, brave, loving girl with a special soul. She always had a smile on her face, one that was super contagious! She happened to love baking herself! She would FaceTime me asking about recipes and how to make a dessert. She loved making macarons and sent me pictures of the ones she made all the time. She had such a huge impact on so many people, including myself. Watching her do what she did was so inspirational and made me want to strive to do my best in what I do. Everything she did, had to be up to her standards. I love and miss her every day.”
JGU is looking forward to sharing Nina’s talent with our global community while honoring Hadassah’s memory.
Creative Online Camp is an excellent opportunity for girls who are home this summer in day camp to connect with peers around the world in the evenings and on Sunday through dynamic activities, Jewish inspiration, creative expression, leadership training, and lasting friendships.
Especially in the wake of the pandemic, Creative Online Camp is a JGU initiative to “create meaningful connections to our core and build a global community nurturing spiritual, mental, and emotional health for women and girls,” says global director Nechama Laber.
