It’s giving…Bubbe’s matzo balls

April 10, 2026

With Passover now in our rearview mirror, and we look ahead toward Shavuot, we reflect on where we come from and where we are going. This practice happens a lot at Hillel of San Diego. Similar to a start-up, we are ever evolving to meet the needs of our students right now.

Sick of It

March 27, 2026

A couple of weeks ago, we put out a statement after swastika graffiti was found on campus at UC San Diego. And once again, late last week, more vile graffiti was discovered in a different location.

What do Bad Bunny and Bret Stephens have in common?

A few weeks ago, a student leader, Osher, came bopping into the office with a bold idea. What if we hosted a Shabbat dance party and got everyone from all the campuses to come together?

TLDR: Your gift is being MATCHED 1:1 @ Hillelsd.org/hggw! 📢

It’s day 3 of Hillel Global Giving Week, and every dollar you give is doubled to help us protect students and build community across our campuses.

While our team works behind the scenes to track antisemitic incidents and coordinate with university officials and law enforcement, your support creates the forward-facing "Jewish joy" that outshines hate. Just ask Jacob, a non-Jewish ally at UCSD:

“I wished Fact Finders would never end – I loved Israel! Coming from moments where I’ve felt inequality within my own cultural community on campus, it means a lot to know that I always have a place with Hillel of San Diego.”

Help us reach our goal and bring light to our campuses throughout San Diego. Give today at Hillelsd.org/hggw!
Last week, we hosted our final Jewish Networking Hub event of the year… and it was our biggest turnout yet. 💫

Students had the opportunity to learn from and connect with the incredible Irwin Jacobs, whose leadership, innovation, and commitment to community continue to shape San Diego for the better.

If you feel inspired by Dr. Jacobs and the work we’re doing through Jewish Networking Hub, consider making a gift during Hillel Global Giving Week. Right now, every donation is being MATCHED, meaning your impact goes twice as far in supporting the Jewish future. 💙

“I never really gravitated towards leadership positions, but when I was approached to join the Hillel Leadership Institute I thought, why not? This is the perfect group to do it with. Through the classes and retreat I learned that I could be impactful, I could be that one person to make a change or impact someone else.” - Rylee, CSUSM ‘27 ✨

At Hillel of San Diego, we have the secret sauce, especially when we get the whole gang back together! Our cross-campus Mimouna party at @coastalrootsfarm was SO good…we’re STILL dancing! 🪩

Shoutout to the Melvin Garb Foundation for making it all possible. Thank you to Coastal Roots Farm for the awesome collaboration. And, a big round of applause to @manningfarmdairy
for sending us (all the way from PA) their premier cow-to-cone ice cream for this special occasion. 👏

We believe in our students, and we know the BEST events are student-led and student-driven. We’re here to inspire them and give them the tools they need to become exceptional student leaders. That’s why campuses across @hillelsd are enrolled in @hillelintl’s Hillel Leadership Institute 👏👏👏

This video was created by @edenbitton15, one of the HLI graduates from @sdsuhillel, she’s one of many student leaders across our campuses stepping up, showing up, and putting in the work.

We are SO proud of these underclassmen leaders for excelling in the program and shaping the future of our Hillel (and community). 💙
