Shliach in Top 40 Under 40
ATLANTIC CITY — For the seventh year, 40 of the Atlantic City region’s most dynamic young leaders have been honored by the Greater Atlantic City Jaycees and Atlantic City Weekly. Among them was Rabbi Avrohom Rapoport, Director of Programming at Chabad Lubavitch of Atlantic City.
His description on the Atlantic City Weekly website reads:
Rabbi Avrohom Rapoport was born to a large Chassidic family that served as the Chabad emissaries in Atlantic County, N.J. He jokes that he grew up as the only Chassidic beach bum at the Jersey shore.
Avrohom was ordained in Brooklyn, N.Y., in 2002 and spent the next two years working as a resident rabbi in Africa, Ukraine, Russia, and India.
Today, he lives in Ventnor with his wife and daughter and directs the programming of Chabad Lubavitch of Atlantic County, the local branch of Chabad. Chabad is the world’s largest Jewish organization and enriches lives through social and educational programming.
Avrohom’s passion is teaching and inspiring others to live more meaningful lives. He established a branch of the Jewish Learning Institute, offering a range of accredited courses. He also organizes programs that instill Jewish pride in all who participate, such as the annual Jewish Summer Fest, Chanukah on Ice and Birthright trips to Israel.
The other people honored are community leaders and volunteers, some are entrepreneurial, others are extraordinary talented and inspiring. One thing they all have in common is that people from around the region nominated them to be one of this year’s Top 40 Under 40. Once again, we are excited to present this year’s honorees inside this annual issue. Our community is a richer one to live in thanks to them
