Accomplishments: These fifth graders build relationships with Jewish seniors in Natick.
Key to Awesomeness: These children are a part of the Kesher 13 volunteer program of the Jewish Family Services of MetroWest. Every month, the group visits local nursing homes with their families to meet Jewish seniors and celebrate Jewish holidays and share stories, according to Nancy Fried-Tanzer, who shared the story with Natick Patch. The kids prepare activities and sing for the seniors.
