Teen Received Tikkun Olam Award
On Aug. 19, Jessica Goldberg
of Farmington Hills was award-
ed $36,000 by the Helen Diller
Family Foundation in recogni-
tion of her commitment to tikkun
olam (repairing the world). At a
luncheon at San Francisco’
s Four
Seasons Hotel, Jessica, along with
14 other young leaders
from across the nation,
received the nation-
al 2019 Diller Teen
Tikkun Olam Award,
a prestigious honor
given to youth leaders
who have demon-
strated exceptional
leadership, community
service and action.
Jessica was selected
for this award among
hundreds of teens
because of her work
in founding Sib4Sib.
Stemming from personal experi-
ence in her family, Jessica came
to realize that even those playing
supportive roles need support, too,
and identified a crucial niche in the
world of mental health and well-
ness — lack of support and visibil-
ity for siblings of those struggling
with mental health. Jessica founded
Sib4Sib in response to this discov-
ery. Sib4Sib also uses workshops,
community socials, ad-campaigns,
and public presentations to raise
mental health awareness and gain
support.
The luncheon celebration was
the culmination of a weekend-long
series of business
strategy workshops,
networking and men-
toring initiatives,
during which award
winners exchanged
ideas with other
socially conscious
peers and interact-
ed with Diller Teen
Tikkun Olam Award
alumni from years
past who are continu-
ing their social justice
work.
A highlight of the
luncheon was a special documen-
tary-style video that featured the
accomplishments of all 15 teens
in a behind-the-scenes chronicle
of their leadership achievements.
