Bowling For Birthright

By Hillel of San Diego / February 19, 2020

We have had such an incredible Birthright recruitment season this year with a full bus of students from SDSU and Cal State San Marcos enrolled for the trip in May!

To connect this year’s participants with alumni and other interested students, SDSU Hillel hosted an awesome event at Aztec Lanes with free bowling, dinner and lots of prizes for anyone that signed up to go to Israel with SDSU Hillel!

Birthright Israel seeks to ensure that every eligible young Jewish adult around the world — 50,000 young Jewish adults each year — is given the opportunity to visit Israel on an educational journey.

We are so excited for our upcoming trip this summer!

They All Come From Somewhere

Are you worried about the future of Jewish life? Antisemitism is rampant. Social media loves to spread hate. Some young people are questioning their connection to Israel.

I get it. Can I tell you why I’m not scared?

We will not allow antisemitism or hate to diminish our Jewish pride or deter our Jewish joy.

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.
