40 Under 40: Rabbi Chase Foster
Mazel Tov to Rabbi Chase Foster for being named to Jewish Atlanta's 40 Under 40.
Rabbi Chase Foster has been a recent staple in the Atlanta Rabbinate.
Born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio, he spent five years as the Rabbi for Engagement and Learning at jHUB in Cleveland, Ohio, supporting interfaith families and young adults on their Jewish journeys, before joining Temple Kol Emeth.
Rabbi Foster is both a member of the Atlanta Rabbinical Association, and a National Rabbinic Cabinet Member of Givat Havivah, an organization working to build awareness of the work around building a shared society for all of Israel’s citizens.
In addition, he has served as Board Chair of the Purdue Hillel Foundation, supporting the growing, vibrant Jewish community at his alma mater.
“Judaism has been a source of community and personal growth for me throughout my life. Through Judaism, I have found lifelong friends, a love of music and singing, a holiday calendar and life cycle filled with rituals that fill my days with joy, and wisdom that helps me to live a life of purpose,” said Foster.
“So too, I am blessed to serve at Temple Kol Emeth, where individuals and families are empowered to find and use their passions in our community, to care for one another during life’s biggest moments, and to build lasting relationships that ensure that our community is a hub for joyful Jewish life in Cobb County (and beyond). It is exciting to be a part of a community where I, along with the staff, lay leadership, and our volunteers, are intentionally creating a place that will impact generations of Jewish Atlantans.”
