All Shuk Up!

shuk2

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

Other Stories From Hillel

It’s Waylon – We need to talk

December 2, 2025

I wanted to reach out today, on Giving Tuesday, to share my story with you. Last fall, I arrived at UCSD knowing literally no one. Finding my community at Hillel of San Diego not only changed my college experience, it changed my life. Thanks to your past generosity, I found a place where I could be unapologetically Jewish, make friends at Shabbat, and step up as a leader.

Your support will have double the impact!

Hillel of San Diego isn’t just growing – we’re doubling down on what matters most: building a thriving, resilient Jewish community for students at SDSU, UCSD, USD, and CSUSM. From leadership development programs to community-builders like Shabbat tables, Torah study and Israel Week to mental health support services, Hillel serves as a gathering place, oasis and second home for students seeking connection and meaning.
