Rachel Grey Ellis

BBYO Lifer

She has a smile that lights up a room. She laughs easily and often. A petite brunette in jeans and a ponytail, working with teens, she’s easily mistaken for a big sister rather than a mom of three. Given her boundless energy at 43, Rachel Grey Ellis has found the perfect match for her professional and personal skills in her role as Senior Regional Director at BBYO, a position she has held since 2015.

A Grateful Community Remembers

William (Bill) Farber, 1931-2017, Jewish Detroit’s Life-Changing Philanthropist

Chief Exec Change Agent

As his former title at Quicken Loans suggests, “V.P. of Miscellaneous Stuff,” David Carroll has done it all. Claiming an early “retirement” in 2016 after 25 years at the epicenter of the company that’s changing the landscape of downtown Detroit, David brings his business acumen and passion for community service to JARC.

Gabe Neistein

Happy Camper

Making his mark, listed among the “36 Under 36” in The Jewish News, Gabe Neistein is Tamarack Camps’ Alumni Relations Director, working on his Masters in Community Development at the University of Detroit Mercy. A resident of Rivertown downtown, Gabe is all-in: a Jewish Detroiter first, a NEXTGen PresenTense Fellow, a loyal Spartan, a passionate Packers “owner,” a whole-hearted city booster, a ready volunteer, a consummate community professional and an all-round great guy.

Leah Rosenbaum

Passionate Advocate

You won’t find a Jewish agency exec more in-step with the needs of her clients than Leah Rosenbaum. A passionate advocate for the most vulnerable members of the community — caring for the elderly, youth at risk, the unemployed and those with living with disabilities — Leah has devoted her career to empowering people to get the support and training they need to achieve their fullest potential.
