Smiles for the Kids and LegacyTaleCraft Present:
The Legacy Twinning Program
Two Lives. Two Stories. One Immortal Connection.
The Vision
A Milestone That Honors Past, Present, and Future
More Than a Ceremony
A Bar or Bat Mitzvah marks your child's entry into the unbroken chain of Jewish history—a moment of transformation, responsibility, and sacred connection.
Smiles for the Kids has partnered with LegacyTaleCraft to create a unique Legacy Twinning Program, where we transform this milestone into a living legacy that connects your child's personal story to the enduring narrative of Israel and the Jewish people.
In a world-first creative collaboration, your child will participate in the professional creation of two custom graphic novels. One honors the family roots they come from—the journeys, struggles, and triumphs that shaped your lineage. The other honors the life and sacrifice of an Israeli hero whose courage continues to inspire.
Together, these two stories become a lasting expression of identity, memory, and responsibility—a bridge between generations and a bond between families separated by geography but united by faith and destiny.
The Two-Book Set
Each twinning sponsorship results in two professionally crafted graphic novels—heirloom-quality books designed to be treasured, shared, and passed down through the generations.
Book One: The Roots Project
We work closely with your family to preserve the stories that shaped who you are today. Through professional interviews with grandparents, parents, and family members, we document your unique heritage—the journeys across continents, the challenges overcome, the values upheld, and the resilience that carried your family forward.
These precious narratives are transformed into a cinematic, modern graphic novel designed to be passed from generation to generation—a tangible connection to the ancestors whose dreams live on in your children.
Book Two: The Hero Tribute
Your child is "twinned" by Smiles for the Kids with a fallen Israeli soldier or a victim of terror. In close partnership with the hero's family, we translate their life story, courage, and ultimate sacrifice into a respectful and inspiring graphic narrative.
This book ensures that the hero's name and legacy live on—carried forward through your child's milestone and beyond. It creates a deeply personal connection between two families, two stories, and one enduring people, honoring those who gave everything so that the Jewish nation could continue to thrive.
This shared bond creates a bridge of meaning—connecting your family's past to Israel's present, and your child's future to the eternal promise of Am Yisrael Chai.
