Damian Popkin​


Ron Hering Award – 2025

“I co-create a world of safety and abundance by loving fiercely.”

Damian demonstrates a fierce commitment to serving and has a great and selfless love for the people he serves. He leads from stewardship and organizing Warriors of Color, to being the first to help build an MKP response to natural disasters. Although he would be a success in any career, Popkin has chosen a humble path: Vice principal of an elementary school in one of Washington’s most challenged neighborhoods. One February Popkin put the word out to local MKP Warriors. He needed men to step up for the Valentine’s Day Father-Daughter dance. Who connects Warriors with tiny princesses? Damian Popkin. More recently, when faced with a cruel reality, Popkin has not wrung his hands. Inspired by peaceful resistance movements like the Montgomery Bus Boycott of the 1950s, Damian organized his community to protect the safety and welfare of the students that attend his school — and their families. The ad hoc, but well-organized effort has erased the incidence of families being forcibly separated at the school.
