What is truly outstanding, and humbling, may I add, is the selflessness of Misameach volunteers.

What’s mayor miller saying?? U can hear him!
The Mayor basically thanked Lipa and volunteers and presented a plaque to the organization. But my favorite part is toward the end when Avrohom Fried hands Menashe the mic and asks him if he wants to sing. Menashe politely hands him the mic back and says “not only do I sing off-key but I even speak off-key”! That got the crowd laughing.
Why didnt they have a list of names for the Mayor instead of the way it was done? (See video)
wow the work that was put by the entire staff of misameach was astounding to say the least….special shoutout to yanky samuel!!!!!!!!!!!!!
