The Satran family from Briarcliff Manor, New York, celebrated their daughter Hayley’s Bat Mitzvah on May 30, 2016, at Congregation Sons of Israel in Briarcliff Manor, New York. The party in her honor was at Life..The Place to Be, an event venue in Ardsley, New York.
Hayley’s favorite TV show is CBS’s Survivor, which is also a very fitting Bat Mitzvah theme as Hayley was born with a congenital heart disorder, so she is very much a survivor! There were lots of tribal touches and a Survivor contestant surprise for this island vibe celebration.

Mitzvah Project
Hayley was born with Tetralogy of Fallot, a congenital heart disorder. She decided to lead a team for the Westchester Heart Walk to raise money and spread awareness of congenital heart disorders. She also modeled in the Fashion Show for Westchester Medical Center’s Girls Night Out. She was the youngest model and planned out her Mitzvah Project and completed it, before the family booked her Bat Mitzvah venue!
Mom to Mom Advice from Mom Merrie
“Keep it all about the child. It wasn’t my party, but Hayley’s party. I wanted it to reflect her. My guests who knew her loved that and were able to enjoy the party more because of it.”
