Mazel tov to our very own Calgary Jewish Federation co-president, Jordan Balaban for being acknowledged as an award winner in Avenue Magazine's 2021 "Top 40 Under 40"! Jordan continues to give selflessly to our community while also providing economic opportunity and investment in Alberta, as well as developing sustainable and renewable energy resources for generations to come. We are very proud of Jordan and wish him continued bracha v'hatzlacha. We also acknowledge two other Jewish community members, Jared Blustein and Allison Dunne, as well as all the other young leaders and innovators named to this year's list. Kol hakavod!
