US Student Philanthropists

University School juniors Marc Frankel, Cole Goldberg, Ben Heller, and Max Wasserman have been selected to serve on the Jewish Federation of Cleveland's 2014-2015 Saltzman Youth Panel. These young men were chosen from among hundreds of applications submitted by boys and girls from local high schools and Jewish community centers.

The Saltzman Youth Panel consists of Jewish high school juniors and seniors who were selected through youth group advisor, rabbi, and religious school director nominations as well as from at-large applications. Working together, panel members will make important decisions on how to spend $50,000 to improve the Jewish and general communities.

The Saltzman Youth Panel was established to educate younger members of the Jewish community about the importance of Jewish communal decision-making, the philanthropic process, and responding to Jewish and general community needs.

The Maurice Saltzman Youth Grant Program of the Jewish Community Federation was established in 1998 by Shirley Saltzman and her family. The program perpetuates the goals of the late Maurice Saltzman, a past president of the Jewish Federation, who cared deeply about educating the next generation of Jewish community leadership.
