Bowling For Birthright

IMG_0975

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!

Heart of Hillel: Meet Kira

Kira’s Hillel story began as an undergraduate at USD, where she was one of only four Jewish students on campus. For Kira, there were no Shabbat dinners. No immersive Jewish learning. No visible Jewish community.
