CAMPAIGNS
ALUMNI
Just because you’ve graduated and left Emory doesn’t mean you leave behind the Jewish community you’ve created. As you think back on your time at Emory we hope Hillel Shabbat dinners, Sushi Tuesday, and Israel Fest are just a few memories that stand out. We pride ourselves on having one of the premier programs of Jewish Student Life in the country, and our alumni are an essential component of the dynamic growth and development of Jewish Life on campus. As proud alumni, we hope you will share in the excitement which is Jewish Life at Emory Hillel.
Just as you support us by sharing stories of your time on campus and by financially supporting Jewish life on campus, so too, do we want to support you as alumni.
There are many ways to stay connected and stay involved that we would love to partner in. Stay informed of Hillel and campus happenings, mentor an undergraduate student, help recent graduates settle into the community you live in, or just hear what other Jewish alumni are up to.
Please fill out our Where are you now form to share your own new happenings and interests.
