Marketing and Outreach Manager, Diller Teen Tikkun Olam Awards

ORGANIZATIONAL OVERVIEW 

At the Jewish Community Federation and Endowment Fund (the Federation), we envision diverse, dynamic Bay Area Jewish communities, deeply engaged in Jewish life and doing good locally, in Israel, and around the world. We create opportunities for people in the Bay Area to connect with and contribute to their communities. Our work is guided by the timeless Jewish values of kehilla (community), tzedakah (giving with just intention), and tikkun olam (repairing the world).

Together, our community is shaping Jewish life in the Bay Area by focusing on three main priorities. First, we’re working to foster and facilitate more impactful philanthropy. Second, we’re working to ensure security and resilience for local Jewish families. And third, we’re engaging the next generation of Bay Area Jews, so they too can find connection and meaning in the values and traditions of Judaism.

The Federation seeks highly motivated individuals with a variety of skill sets to build the next generation of Federation engagement. We are especially interested in forward-thinking, collaborative, and open-minded candidates who are willing to take risks, possess a high level of integrity, and model a positive attitude that inspires confidence.

THE DILLER TEEN TIKKUN OLAM AWARDS OVERVIEW

The Diller Teen Tikkun Olam Award, a program of the Helen Diller Family Foundation, annually recognizes and awards up to 15 exceptional Jewish teens from California and across the United States. Teens are awarded for their leadership of initiatives that make the world a better place. Recipients are awarded $36,000 each to support their education or to further their social impact.

Helen Diller created the awards in San Francisco in 2007, expanding in 2012 to include Awardees from across the United States. Past recipients of the Award continue to connect in a network of alumni who support each other’s work and impact.
