Jewish life on an Israeli campus starts with Hillel
Hillel is the largest Jewish student organization in the world. It builds connections with emerging adults at more than 550 colleges and universities around the world, and inspires them to direct their own path. During their formative college years, students are challenged to explore, experience, and create vibrant Jewish lives.
More Jewish students live in Israel than in any other country in the world. Many young Israelis speak Hebrew and follow the Jewish calendar, many perceive Jewish tradition as irrelevant to their lives. Hillel Israel offers a diverse array of activities that connect Israelis to a different kind of Judaism, and has tripled its reach in the past decade.
Hillel Israel’s experience proves that the best way to involve Israeli young adults is to create thought-provoking opportunities that they can share with other young Jews from around the world.
With seven centers across the country, Hillel Israel serves more than 2,700 students annually.

Hillel Israel operates in seven campuses across Israel:
- Hebrew University of Jerusalem

Hillel Israel is the Israeli constituency of Hillel International, the world’s largest global Jewish student organization. Hillel Israel engages over 20,000 Israeli students each year in meaningful Jewish experiences and partners with over 100 organizations in Israel and abroad.
