YIR: 18 Under 18 for 2024 - Atlanta Jewish Times

Jewish Atlanta's 2024 young leaders and rising stars were recognized in October.

Published just once every three years, the Jewish Atlanta’s 18 Under 18 may be the AJT’s most popular publication.

Jewish Atlanta’s 18 Under 18 are a remarkable group of young Jewish leaders, nominated by family and friends, teachers, counselors, and founders of charities.

Their achievements range from the academic to the athletic to the humanitarian and beyond. Many have been recognized by awards at the state or even national level. Many of them have founded their own clubs and charities. All of them have deep ties to their local Jewish communities. Their paths, even thus far, have been difficult. Some have overcome disease or loss. All have had the difficulty of making their way through the midst of a pandemic and into the realm of leadership, all in the interest of making a better world.

The 18 standout students are: Jaron Alexander (17); Gabe Elkinson (17); Sisi Elkinson (17); Matan Fleishman (15); Benjamin Ganz (17); Nina Leff (17); Hannah Lipman (16); Kitty Lubin (15); Oliver Mason (17); Sarah Menis (17); Lily Mosbacher (17); Zachary Notte (17); Abigail Richman (17); Leon Silver (17); Yehuda Siegelman (15); Rachel Slutzky (17); Abigail Smith (17); and Brady Solomon (16).
