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.

Today – Giving Tuesday – your gift has the power to go twice as far. A generous donor will match $25,000 in gifts (and we still have $8,000 left to reach that goal). Your support today will act as a force multiplier to help Hillel of San Diego expand our impact across campuses, amplify student-led leadership initiatives and deepen wellness support.

Hillel of San Diego’s role in our community goes way beyond a campus organization – it’s a whole-of-community bridge for Jewish continuity. Hillel is a place where students explore their Jewish identity, form lasting connections and develop the leadership skills that will serve them – and our community – for generations to come. In supporting Jewish students, you make a powerful statement that our community will stand strong against the rising challenges on campus, including antisemitism – and we do it together.

Today, your support will go twice as far. Please help us support our brave students and invest in the Jewish community they will help build and strengthen for years to come.

With appreciation,

Mitch Siegler
Board Chair

This past weekend, I was in Washington D.C. at the Hillel/AJC University Presidents Summit on Campus Antisemitism. 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.

On Friday, we celebrated the Melvin Garb Hillel Center’s 10 Year Anniversary at Shabbat with students and some special guests. We hosted a tour of the beautiful center with students who shared how each of the spaces impacted their Jewish experience. Students shared the business plans they created in the Sophie and Arthur Brody Library and the Jewish women’s club, Achayot, explained that they are working to establish an AEPhi Chapter at SDSU in the Harold R. Stern Student Leadership Room.
