The Associated Recognizes Six Baltimore Jewish Community Leaders


In September, friends and family joined Associated professionals for an evening celebrating six leaders who have made an incredible impact of Baltimore’s Jewish community.

While these individuals are no strangers to community leadership, they have gone above and beyond — committing their time and support to help build a brighter future for Jewish Baltimore.

This year we celebrated:

Katie Fink, Zelda Miller Award
Chavi Abramson, Fred Walpert Young Leadership Award
Eugene Poverni, Fred Walpert Young Leadership Award
Micah Damareck, Harry Greenstein Young Leadership Award
Rich Topaz, Julius Rosenberg Memorial Award
Kenneth D. Hornstein, Carole Sibel Outstanding Fundraising Achievement Award*
