Community Service

To save one life is as if you have saved the world. - Talmud

Hofstra Hillel is dedicated to helping those in need.

Based on the Jewish imperatives of tzedakah (righteousness), gemilut chasadim (acts of loving kindness), and tikkun olam (repair of the world), Hofstra Hillel works tirelessly with students to create meaningful service initiatives and encourages creative thinking when addressing social justice issues.

Students grow Jewishly, intellectually and spiritually through the process of bringing about meaningful social change.
