The Diller Teen Tikkun Olam Awards highlight teens (ages 13–19) who self-identify as Jewish and who are creating or leading a new initiative, or who have deepened or expanded an existing project which embodies the values of Tikkun Olam, the Jewish value of repairing the world. Initiatives can have a local, national, or global focus benefiting the Jewish community or the community at-large and must be a current, ongoing project. These projects may have any focus, from raising money, to hands-on interactions, to larger systemic-change initiatives.
