Hillel International and ADL are joining forces to work collaboratively on several initiatives to proactively address the disturbing rise in antisemitic activity on campus.

Hillel International’s MitzVote initiative is designed to help students maneuver the complexities around voting by breaking the process down into simple steps, from registration to ballot submission, and giving students resources about civic action and education.

Megan Garrett, assistant director of University of Colorado Boulder (CU Boulder) Hillel, has fond memories of living near the shores of Netanya, Israel. She spent most of 2014 in Netanya with Masa Israel Teaching Fellows, an experience for Jewish college graduates seeking volunteer, teaching and learning opportunities in Israel.

In a new partnership, college students and Hillel staff from dozens of Hillels are sharing the campus communities they love with the high school students of BBYO.

The Jewish Federations of North America (JFNA) is pleased to announce the appointment of Eric D. Fingerhut, currently the president and chief executive officer (CEO) of Hillel International, as JFNA’s next president and CEO.

The new Hillel will receive support from Hillel of Colorado, Hillel International and JEWISHcolorado; Seth Reder named executive director.

JScreen was at the Hillel International Global Assembly in Denver, engaging with Hillel professionals in order to bring JScreen to their campuses for education and screening events. JScreen’s expanded screening panels now enable for testing of more than 200 diseases, a significant development from a generation ago.
