Welcome to the Hillel UW family!
“As parents of a UW senior, we have experienced firsthand the incredible support available to the students and we are so grateful for everything Hillel does. During complete lockdown in 2020, the amazing staff worked tirelessly at keeping the students connected and cared for.”
~ Marlo and Bernard Surovsky, Parents of Cayla, UW Class of 2023
The college years mark the first time many young Jewish adults are empowered to make critical decisions about their life’s Jewish journey. Our Jewish future rests on the ability of our students and young adults to have access to a variety of programs and activities that allow them to chart their own Jewish journey.
Hillel UW is a “home away from home” for many of our students. We celebrate Shabbat and the holidays together, learn together, play together, and work to repair the world together. Hillel UW provides students with free use of our gym, cafe, open study space, and counseling services. We hope you will encourage your child to stop by and get involved.
