TORONTO — Marya Nurgitz, 12, created her bat mitzvah project to honour her late grandmother.
On Jan. 23, she invited a group of friends to work on a quilt she plans to donate to the Toronto Jewish Quilting Project, which provides quilts for people touched by cancer.
Marya, a Grade 7 student at Netivot HaTorah Day School, said her grandmother died in 1998 from cancer, “and I feel that [this project] honours her and includes her in my bat mitzvah spiritually, even though she isn’t here physically.”
