Hillel Program Helps Jewish College-Bound Students Transition to College

Do you know a Jewish college-bound freshman? Tell them about JCollege Bound and help ease their transition from high school to college. First-year college students can connect to Jewish life on campus before they even arrive, thanks to this important program offered by Hillel International. They will receive a warm welcome from Hillel staff and the opportunity to experience Jewish programming immediately upon arriving in the fall. The organization ensures students have access to free High Holiday meals and services on their campus, paid internships offering professional development and mentorship and much more. Your donations to the Annual Federation/UJA Campaign help support seven Florida Hillels on college campuses across the state, along with Hillel International.
