Nominate a Teen Leader for Diller Tikkun Olam Award

Do you know an outstanding Jewish teen leader who is a true changemaker? Each year, the Helen Diller Family Foundation awards 15 Jewish teens with $36,000 in recognition of their exceptional leadership and engagement in service projects that embody the value of tikkun olam (repairing the world). Last year Miami’s Daniel Solomon (pictured above) earned this prestigious honor for his efforts bringing music into Miami-Dade County public schools. To learn more about the opportunity and nominate a teen in our community for a Diller Teen Tikkun Olam Award, visit Diller Teen Awards. Nominations are due on Thursday, December 23 and applications are due on Friday, January 7, 2022.
