Following the spa, renowned pastry chef, Rivka Turner, delivered a dessert demo in preparation for Shavuos, with each participant trying their hand at creating a professional dessert.

“I had the most unbelievable Mothers’ Day,” said one appreciative mother. “I had the opportunity of meeting other mothers who understand the challenges facing me, and truly appreciate the difficulties I experience each and every day. Their advice and support means the world to me. I can’t thank The Friendship Circle enough.”

“It was a pleasure to witness the mothers just enjoying a night out, without any burdens or troubles on their mind,” said Friendship Circle Director, Chaya Eckhaus. “We not only need to care for the special needs children themselves, it is imperative that we appreciate what these mothers deal with and help them cope in any way we can.”
