SDSU Hillel’s painting night was a great example of how Hillel is run by students!

Fresh out of an art class, Otis, SDSU class of 2021, spoke up at the beginning of the semester about how much he loves painting! The Hillel staff asked him if he would be interested in hosting a painting night to share his passion for art with others?

25 students later, the event was a big success!

Hillel is truly a space for the students to create programs for their peers based on what they are passionate about and this is an amazing example of that coming to fruition!

Right before the Israelites enter into the promised land, Moses recounts their journey from Mitzrayim (Egypt), through 40 years of wandering and struggle, to get them to that very moment. Moses himself cannot enter the land but that it is up to future generations to care for it and work for it, and he gives them his blessing.

We want students to leave our doors more equipped to connect to the next stage of their Jewish journey. That may be at a synagogue or going off to serve as leaders at Federation, the JCC, or ADL. We envision they will build donor advised funds with JCF, and volunteer at JFS…. simply to be connected to meaningful Jewish life through any and all organizations that help them continue to nurture their own Jewish identities.
