Mazel Toy! Births This week's friends are Daniel Michaels & Special Friend Jay Hodess Friends are a blessing. The more you have, the more blessed you might feel. But to a special-needs child, having just one friend N'Noul d be the greatest blessing in the world. The Friendship Circle brings together the children who need friends, and teens who want to be friends. But we need drivers to get these teens to the homes of the children who need them. And we need donations, in any amount, to fund all our important programs. But most of all, we need friends. Young people who believe that friendship is a journey to be shared with others. One at a time. Please call the Friendship Circle today. Who knows? You may see a picture of you and a friend here some day.
