Rutgers Learning Network, or as commonly know by the Rutgers students by the name RJX (Rutgers Jewish Experience), lives up to its name by offering the students a unique Jewish experience. They not only offer the spiritually motivating classes that show the love and emotion in Jewish life, but they allow for each individual to express himself Jewishly according to his level of comfort, without any level of pressure or sense of religious debasement. And what's really special is that right next to Rutgers University is the very warm community of Highland Park, who not work alongside Rutgers Learning Network by housing students for Shabbos and hosting for meals, but they compete for the opportunity to have these students even when there is not a scheduled Shabbaton.

RJX is run by a team of dedicated, idealistic, hard-working professionals, who reach the hearts and minds of unaffiliated Jewish students on a large campus with many Jewish students who are searching for more meaning in their lives. Their combination of hands-on activities - Shabbaton weekends with inspiring speakers and warm, inviting guest accommodations; authentic, meaningful, and joyful Jewish wedding ceremonies and dancing; bringing the students to see various charitable Jewish activities across the jewish spectrum - as well as classes, lectures and trips to Israel - have made this the top campus kiruv organization in the USA. They care about their students and even their students' extended families, and provide guidance, comfort, and support not only while they are on campus but also after they have left and moved on to other ventures and educational institutions. Your money could not be better spent than on bringing Judaism's beauty to our affiliated youth through this organization. Their track record for success is impressive.
