History

Frank Fierman AZA #2233 was founded in January, 1980. However, it had previously operated under the name Frank Garson AZA, beginning in 1951, before folding in 1975.

In the early 2010's, the chapter had dwindled down to just a few members, with the chapter being propped up under the leadership of two future Atlanta Council Shlichim: Seth Euster, as well as Bradley Schleicher.

In 2013, Jake Steel and Danny Hydrick switched over from Avitz AZA #2383-2490-2490-2382, where they immensely helped the chapter. Jake, serving as both Godol and Moreh, brought in a Freshman class that featured 5 extremely dedicated Alephs. These 5 Alephs (Josh Binderman, Andrew Wallach, Kenny Janis, Drew Weiss, and Josh Lewkowict) served to revitalize the chapter in membership, progamming, and reputation. After this wonderful year as Godol, Jake Steel was elected as the 86th Atlanta Council Aleph Godol.

In 2014, the chapter was changed forever. With Josh Binderman serving as both Godol and Moreh, an AIT class of 40 Alephs (including the Moreh of the Year) was brought in. This new class ushered in a new wave of acclaim and prestige for Fierman, helping the chapter earn the AC Chapter of the Year award, as well as the Henry Monsky Award. After this year, Josh Binderman was elected as the 87th Atlanta Council Godol.

In 2017, a new era of Frank Fierman AZA was ushered in with the help of Bagel Girl, a painting conveniently acquired from the local Panera Restaurant. This image has come to represent the spirit of Frank Fierman AZA, the adversity the chapter has fought through, and how they continue to thrive to this day. Under the overview of Godolim Jack Warshal (2017-2018) and Caden Sime (2018-2019), the chapter has experienced unprecedented growth and won a number of awards, including the domination of the recently instituted program of the month award, winning 10/16 in the modern era at the time of writing. The top three trio (Jack Warshal, Dylan Frohman, and Caden Sime) have been instrumental in shaping the chapter's culture and identity while serving as its core leadership.

In Fall 2019, A new group of freshman meant a new era primarily led by Juniors. Caden took Godol, Jack and Dylan took s'gans A&B, and Brandon Sherman took Mazkir. Sophmores, Irwin took Moreh, and Jake Goodleboy took Gizbor. Jared Rakusin occupied Shaliach, and Sopher was left to the one and only other senior, Howie Lips. The group led a new freshman class, full of potential through a fun fall semester before The Great Depression AKA second semester.

In Spring 2019, as Caden and IJ remained Godol and Moreh, Warshal was realected S'gan A with freshman, Stuart Cohen as S'gan B. Frohman and Sherman took sebaticals leaving Mazkir to freshman, Maddon Sime, Shaliach to Jordy Levy (freshman), and Gizbor to Senior, Howie Lips. Sopher was Andrew Levinston (freshman). Kickoff was at Levy's house. Was ok. The only good program was the Braves Game. Big Hit. If you are reading this, suggest it. IT was a huge hit. The rest was boring. Board was pretty segregated by upper and lower board. Goodleboy became a wing night kid. Twas rough.

In Fall 2019, as the trio of Jack Warshal, Dylan Frohman, and Caden Sime (with Brandon Sherman) entered their senior year, they dedicated their senior year teaching the current Sophomore class how to be more independent. With Dylan as Godol, Sophomores, Stuart and Maddon, took the positions of S'gans A&B. Mazkir was sophomore, Jordy Levy, Gizbor was sophomore, Andrew Warshal, and Sopher was Andrew Levingston. Caden was Moreh, Brandon was Shaliach, and Jack was the Region's Godol. IJ lost Moreh and didn't slide so RIP Junior Representation.
