Explore Hillel Israel
While young Israelis speak Hebrew and follow the cycle of the Jewish calendar, many perceive Judaism as only a religion. They view Jewish tradition as outdated, inaccessible, or irrelevant to their lives. Hillel Israel seeks to emphasize the relevance of Jewish life to today's Israeli students and young adults, inspiring them to explore their Jewish identity and to feel a sense of belonging to "The Global Jewish People." Hillel Israel engages over 20,000 Israeli students per year in meaningful Jewish experiences. Hillel Israel operates on eight campuses throughout Israel: The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Tel Aviv University, Ben-Gurion University, IDC Herzliya, Haifa University, Technion, Sapir Academic College, and Tel Hai Academic College.Undergraduate Enrollment
