Just imagine when he grows up!” That’s what people at the Jewish Home of Atlanta say about 11-year-old Josh Cohen. “Josh is like the Boy Scout who’s ready and waiting to help someone cross the street.” Josh helps everyone at the Jewish Home, where he vol unteers every other Sunday. He knows that some people have trouble working with old people. He doesn’t know why, but he admitted he was scared at first. “But I got used to the people. In many ways, they’re just like everybody else. I just give them some happiness when I’m here and that really makes me feel good.” When the elderly people at the Home see Josh, their faces light up. As he passes them, they reach out and kiss his hand or pat him. In return, Josh gives them a hug or warm greeting. One of Josh’s jobs is helping in the lunchroom. He helps feed the old people who need help, cutting their meat or buttering their bread. One resident (a person who lives there) taught Josh how to play chess. “Sometimes Mr. Cantor lets me win on purpose,” Josh said. “But I learn so much from the people here.” He is just sad that he is the only kid around and wishes more kids would come and help. “I’m having all the fun myself,” he said. Josh said he learned about volunteering from his mom. His mother, Cissy Cohen, taught him that “Judaism means action. Without action, you have nothing.” Both of his parents taught him to save money to help others and to give his time to people who need him. Josh has good advice for other kids. “Just ‘Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.’ Don’t tease or be mean to people be cause one day it could happen to you.” (Edited from an article in the Southern Israelite, Atlanta, Georgia, written by Robyn Freedman Spizman.
