1st Financial Bank USA wants to celebrate those who recognize the importance of pursuing educational and financial goals with the 1st Financial Bank USA Financial Goals Scholarship.
Every year, the Helen Diller Family Foundation awards Jewish teens with the Diller Teen Tikkun Olam Awards for their leadership efforts to change the world. From the environment to social justice to access to education and beyond, these young people are tackling big challenges in their communities and having tremendous impact. Applicants must be currently serving in a leadership role on a project or initiative aimed at repairing the world. They must also be volunteering without any compensation. The award may be used to further the recipient's philanthropic work or for their education. Projects can have a local, national, or global focus benefiting the Jewish or general community. Applicants can create a new project or contribute to an established initiative if they demonstrate a current, significant leadership role in an existing organization or project. Teens who have created and co-led projects with others are welcome to apply individually for the Tikkun Olam Award. In such cases, each applicant will be considered and evaluated separately, and no more than one applicant per project will be chosen as an award recipient. Applicants may apply themselves or be nominated. To qualify, applications should focus on a single project or initiative led by the applicant; demonstrate that the applicant has made a significant and impactful contribution in a leadership role, either in initial project creation or over time; show the project's measurable impact; provide a clear articulation of an issue area, geographic region, and community that the project serves; and show that the project can serve the Jewish community or the broader community.
