Sophia “Sophie” Annalise Bergantino, daughter of Tamar and JR Bergantino, will celebrate becoming a bat mitzvah on May 2, at Congregation Or Chadash.
She is the granddaughter of Paul and Silvia Esrig of San Diego.
Sophie attends The Gregory School, where she is an honor student. She enjoys tumbling and trampoline gymnastics. She is passionate about the arts and has been raising funds for Tucson Unified School District’s Opening Minds through the Arts program.
Her mitzvah project consisted of several fundraising activities, including creating glasswork that will be auctioned at her bat mitzvah party; creating and selling polymer clay charms at Tucson Hebrew Academy’s craft fair; and organizing a fundraising contest at her school.
