This week, Friendship Circle hosted an evening for the mothers of children with special needs.
An elegant buffet of desserts were enjoyed by the fifty women that attended.
A fresh juice stand offered a variety of fruit and vegetables for the women to choose a juice of their own unique taste.
John Pizzi, together with his sidekicks, had everyone laughing throughout the night. A complimentary chinese auction took place, with prizes such as sheitel washes, cookbooks and designer handbags being won by some lucky mothers.
The Friendship Circle would like to thank Mrs. Malkie and Rochie Smetana for their ongoing support for our dear moms, along with the following supporters and friends who made this evening possible.

it was very beatiful!!!
Amazing, amazing work! Looks like the Moms enjoyed a fabulous (and well deserved!!!) evening out.
Just curious: Does FC ever do anything for the Dads? Surely it is just as difficult for them too…
I am a proud voulenteer
chani, your amazing!!
we got a pizza party, chanuka gift and purim shalach manos and tonight were having a BBQ (org a week ago)
so im not sure what gifts youre missing out on
i did this to get to know this child and i dont need them to spend money on me in
What the h… is wrong with you? Being a Bocher volunteer myself – who btw was invited a week ago to an end of year BarBQ for all Bochurim Volunteers – we were never promised anything other then the zchus of working with these amzing young adults.
Im sorry that your life is so sad that a slice of Pizza makes it or breaks it for you…
And Cheers to Yossi Smoller the greatest Boys Volunteer Coordinator for taking care of the Bochurim throughout the year!
The Majeskys are a light upon our nation (Crown Heights).
Thank you for all that you do,
No it’s not. But in the future FC shouldn’t be telling people to sign up to be a volunteer, because we will be getting so much. Bbqs. Pizza. Trips…. If we didn’t get anything like that
First I am in awe of what volunteers are commenting. Are you doing something for a mitzvah or a slice of pizza. Thank you chani for the amazing night out. It was classy, the food was amazing, and the entertainment was hysterical. To the commenter #12. I have no idea what you do but I don’t think you should be expecting anything from a family you are suppose to be doing a mitzvah for. I give my girls a gift at the end of the year for coming and working with my child. I do not think they are expecting… Read more »
is this all about gifts?
what one learns from the fc child is a gift enough!
We are working for the FC. The ones in charge should be the ones giving is gifts. And dinnars more than once. Thank you for the nice pizza Party in the beginning of the year. But after hat it seems as if they forgot about us bochrim who did so much this year.
GO MUSHKY GUREVITCH!!!
where are the desserts from?
I think that as volunteers we get more gifts from the staff then we do from the parents and families that we help. We come every single week and never get anything from the family!
sorry just realized u are a mother of fc child and want to show appreciation for volunteer…
what volunteering for fc is giving them is priceless compared to pizza or ice cream if ur son is happy don’t kvetch for him just show him how proud u r
