Brady Solomon, 16

Son of Helayne Solomon and Brian Solomon
Chamblee High School

As a teenager with Type 1 Diabetes, Brady has become a role model for others with the condition, acting as a Youth Ambassador for Breakthrough T1D and becoming a counselor in Training for Camp Kudzu, a camp for kids with T1D. His essay on the subject for the PTA Reflection Contest, urging others with T1D to strive for positivity and self-advocacy, won first place on both the school and regional levels. As a student-athlete, Brady’s primary love is baseball, which he has played on the Varsity team for Chamblee High School, and the travel team for 25/8 Kings – he’s also won his school’s Bulldog Award for positivity and leadership in the sport. He’s involved in basketball, playing 3v3 several of the past years for Save a Child’s Heart, and volunteering as a youth basketball coach for the All Saints Catholic Church basketball program. He has played on teams in both sports for the Maccabi Games.
