Bar Mitzvah of Ezra Kader

In-Person via RSVP or Live and Interactive on Zoom

Meeting ID: 970 5909 1302 Passcode: Mitzvah

Ezra Kader will celebrate his Bar Mitzvah on Saturday, December 17, 2022, joined by his proud parents Aaron Kader and Jamie Winterton. He is the grandson of David and Pat Kader and Jim and Susan Winterton.

Ezra is currently in the seventh grade and enjoys building Legos and reading, as well as learning about birds, aviation, spaceflight, and history.

For his Bar Mitzvah project, Ezra volunteered with Liberty Wildlife, a local organization specializing in wildlife rehabilitation, natural history education, and conservation services. Ezra focused his project on researching and informing the curriculum for their Superhero Club. The club provides wildlife and habitat education along with hands-on activities for the children, through both newsletters and on-campus workshops.

Mazel Tov, Ezra!
