Sophia Cross

Sophia Cross As part of the community service project for her upcoming Bat Mitzvah, 12-year-old Sophia Cross provided lunch for all of the volunteers and crew members at Peninsula Habitat's South San Francisco site on October 6. Bat Mitzvah is a ceremony that marks a young Jewish girl's passage to adulthood, with the community service project demonstrating that she can handle the responsibility by giving back to others.

With support from Costco and Lunardi's, which helped cover the cost of the food and beverages, Sophia prepared a lunch of homemade sandwiches, cookies, fruit, chips and water. She and her family and friends served the meal following a brief speech from Sophia to the assembled volunteers and crew. Sophia is a member of Peninsula Temple Beth El in San Mateo.
