Know a teen with a passion
for creating change? The Diller Teen Tikkun Olam Awards is
seeking nominations of Jewish teens who are actively engaged in social action.
Up to 10 teens from across the country will be selected to receive $36,000 each
for their exceptional leadership in projects that embody the value of tikkun
olam, or “repairing the world.”
Community members can
nominate young leaders now for the 2014 Diller Teen Tikkun OlamAwards
through a simple online form. Since 2007, this annual program of the
Helen Diller Family Foundation has recognized 40 Jewish teens with nearly $1.5
million to further their projects and education. To nominate a teen or learn
more about the program, visitwww.DillerTeenAwards.org. All Jewish teen volunteers who
are 13 to 19 years old at the time of nomination are eligible.
For questions, contact dillerteenawards@sfjcf.org or (415) 512-6432. Deadline
for nominations is January 5, 2014.
