Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Judaism, Leadership Development, Religion
Mission: Enrich the lives of jewish students
Programs: Shabbat dinners--we serve over 150 free shabbat dinners to students every-other week during the school year. These dinners draw a wide variety of students and allow us to celebrate shabbat as a community. The meals are mostly funded by the student association through hillel
trips--every year we take a group of 15-40 students on a taglit birthright israel trip. These trips are transformative for students. Staff spends significant time recruiting for and planning trips in addition to follow up.
holiday programs--we host or partially fund holiday services, meals and programs for all jewish holidays that occur within the school year. Throughout the year hundreds of students participate in these programs which help them connect to their judaism, learn more about holidays and celebrate as part of a community
