Danielle Heather Freiden, daughter of Jonathan Freiden and Rebecca Dragon-Freiden, will become a bat mitzvah on Saturday, Dec. 9, at The Temple, Congregation B’nai Jehudah.

Danielle is a seventh grader at Leawood Middle School, where she participates in school musicals and various clubs. She plays the flute and is a member of the school’s jazz band. Outside of school, she participates in ice skating, dance and theater classes. Danielle is a Kesher student and enjoys spending her summers at Herzl Camp in Wisconsin. 

When Danielle isn’t skating or acting, she enjoys spending time with her friends, family and pets. 

For her mitzvah project, Danielle is making “Happy Kits” to give to children who are admitted to Children’s Mercy Hospital.
