There are multiple ways you can support the mission and students of
Hillel of Silicon Valley. Check out some of the ways you can get involved!
|
Rosh Hashanah & Yom Kippur
Amongst the student population supported by Hillel of Silicon Valley, there are students who do not have a place to go to enjoy a Rosh Hashanah or pre-Yom Kippur meal or break the fast. If you are able and willing to host one or more students for holiday dinners, please contact Mitch Reitman, Assistant Director at
mreitman@hillelsv.org or 408-774-7532.
Students are welcomed to attend High Holy Day services at most congregations in the area at no cost. For information about student tickets for High Holy Day services, please contact Mitch.
