Bat Mitzvah of Penelope Schonfeld

Penelope Schonfeld has lived in New York all her life. She just finished seventh grade at Booker T. Washington Middle School and graduated from the Hebrew School. Penelope is an avid and accomplished runner, and gets up early on weekday mornings to train for weekend NYC Road Runners races, where she regularly places in the top 5 for her age group. She is also an accomplished poet and artist, strong and dedicated student, loyal friend, and wonderful sister to Zadie and Hannah. Penelope will donate her tzedakah to Achilles International, a global organization that transforms the lives of people with disabilities through athletic programs and social connection. Penelope’s parents, Samantha and Roger Schonfeld, are long-standing members of the AC community and could not be prouder of their daughter.
