Meet Adam Kirsch!
Adam is in 7th grade at Duke School. He participates in model UN and plays soccer and tennis for school. In his free time Adam enjoys hanging out with friends, walking his dog Murphy, and playing games with his family. For his mitzvah project, Adam was able to help our local community by serving dinners at the Durham Urban Ministries Community Cafe. He is looking forward to his Bar Mitzvah.
