All Shuk Up!

Last night was our Annual Jewish Night Market, or Shuk, and we served nearly a thousand students– many who were not Jewish. We had over 20 booths featuring Jewish food from around the world. Each Booth also had content about that Jewish community and its connection to Israel. This program is one of our strongest outreach efforts as it invites others to learn and appreciate the richness of the Jewish experience while empowering Jewish student leadership and Jewish pride. 

I can explain more but a picture is worth a thousand words so check out some of last night:

Thank you for being a part of Peace in Israel Week. This work is only possible because community members like you invest in Hillel. 

Now, onto our Israel Week Shabbat and some rest! 

Shabbat Shalom, 

Karen

The Summit brought together Hillel Executive Directors, AJC Regional Directors (including San Diego’s Sara Brown) and 150 University leaders including UCSD’s Chancellor Khosla and Vice Chancellor Petitt, to address antisemitism productively and focus on what institutions can do to create positive change.
