Ari Teman: Your 2009 Jewish Community Hero - Jewish Federations of North America

Nominate! http://www.jewishcommunityheroes.org/pages/nominate/

The Jewish Community Hero Award honors those making strides to repair the world, starting in their own communities. Last year, you cast over 500,000 votes along the way toward naming the Hero of the Year. Thousands have gotten into volunteering thanks to Ari Teman. JCorps, which he founded two years ago and runs entirely as a volunteer, has fed over 21,000 meals to the hungry and visited hundreds of seniors and sick children in the USA, Israel, and Canada. Teman has found time for all of his JCorps work despite a busy career as an award-winning comedian.
