This fellowship gives committed Jewish vegan, vegetarian and animal loving college students the opportunity to take action and create change on their campuses. Fellows will:

Volunteer & Other Opportunities
From a community member:
My brother, 71 years old, recently moved to Seattle. He is experiencing Parkinson’s and cognitive changes. He was an English teacher at both the high school and college level, and was a writer who published essays and reviews of books written about Jewish experiences. I am looking for someone to meet with him in person to discuss different topics and keep him cognitively stimulated. Payment for your time is available, or school credit. I am a professor in the UW Psychiatry Department (I’m a clinical neuropsychologist) and would be able to discuss some of the relationship of Parkinson’s, cognitive functioning and aging with the student as well. Please contact David Breiger at dbreiger@yahoo.com for more information.
