I’ve experienced Hillel’s incredible impact on students firsthand. During my college years, Hillel provided a space for me to connect, grow, and learn Jewishly, and was a cornerstone of my Jewish journey. Now, as a parent, I look forward to the day my children will have the opportunity to experience the same sense of belonging and inspiration. 

More than ever, a strong, inclusive, and welcoming Hillel is vital on every campus. 

I’m proud to support Hillel of San Diego. I invite you to join me in ensuring that Hillel remains a center where students can feel safe, celebrate Shabbat and Jewish holidays, develop their leadership skills, and explore their Jewish identity. 

I’m honored to join our current and past board presidents (Mitch Siegler, Wayne Harris, Joel Smith, Emily Jennewein, David Michan, Hollie Bierman, Michael Breslauer, Bob Lapidus, Herb Solomon, Jane Scher, Steve Solomon, and Judy Gumbiner) in challenging our community to dig deeper and elevate your giving to Hillel of San Diego to match our increased annual gifts and raise $175,000 by midnight, December 31st!

Wishing you and yours a Happy Hanukkah!
