Campus Hillels are among the most important Jewish communal organizations, finally being recognized (along with JCC, JFS, synagogues, senior service institutions, ADL, Federation, and day schools) as critical to the Jewish future.
Good Jewish communities support their Hillels, and good Hillel’s integrate college students into the fabric of the Jewish community during their college days and beyond.
Your advocacy is critically important and needed, since as an independent 501(c)3 Hillel of Colorado receives no core funding from JEWISHcolorado or Hillel International.
On behalf of Tournament chairperson Don Brenner, board chair Dick Fleischman, our students and our staff: thank you for making our 2022 annual charity golf tournament a huge success. Our golfers learned about Jewish student life, had a great time, and helped us net over $37,000 to support programming for our 2,000 students in metro-Denver and northern Colorado. Stay tuned for next year’s date.
Thanks especially to our sponsors!!

April Powers
Understanding Antisemitism and the Jewish Experience
Featuring April Powers, the Director of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion for Project Shema, a national nonprofit that trains and supports the Jewish community and allies to address contemporary antisemitism.
April will help us understand one the oldest forms of hate on earth, and how knowledge can lessen the spread of antisemitism on campus and beyond. The Jewish People, only 15 million strong worldwide, have faced marginalization, oppression, and violence in society after society, era after era. Antisemitism again is on the rise on campuses and in communities nationwide and globally.
Join us to better understand this ancient form of hate and how by slowing the spread of anti-Jewish ideas we can make all marginalized and oppressed people safer.
