Parent Resources

All students are welcome at Hillel!

Take comfort in knowing that our regular programming (weekly Shabbat Dinners, Birthright Israel trips, holiday celebrations, leadership opportunities, social justice programs, and religious and social events) is free of charge.

On top of all that, our Parent Circle is one more way you can help your student stay connected to Jewish life through Hillel’s warm, vibrant, and diverse community on their campus and while they are away from home.

Enroll now and we will hand deliver to dorm, apartment or house three timely care packages throughout the school year – and of course Matzah Ball soup to ease anything that ails. We will provide that very-appreciated-little-bit-of-home for your college student for a one-time fee of $360. And now, student leaders at each campus will determine how the revenue generated will be spent to enhance student life at Hillel.

Matzah Ball Soup Hotline

Is your student not feeling so great?

We will deliver matzah ball soup to DU & CSU Hillel students free of charge.

Sponsor a Shabbat

We build our Jewish community with YOUR support!

For our 2,000 students Hillel’s Friday night Shabbat is priceless, with hundreds first connecting with us in this way. But with the cost of food & supplies rising we turn to you to help us provide this free-of-charge experience to every student.

Your sponsorship helps us make our Hillel a home-away-from-home for Colorado college students.

A gift of $500 underwrites a Friday night’s Kiddush, challah, candles, program and delicious meal. Choose the season you wish for your sponsorship, and tell us for which campus. We will share with the students your name and your special Shabbat message.

L’Chaim!
