BAGEL BREAK
Recharge with Hillel! Students enjoy a mid-day pick me up of coffee and bagels, sure to give them the energy they need for a successful day in school.
Join us Tuesdays at Tech Green for our weekly Bagel Break!
We will be there from 10:50 to 11:50 am.
WHITE WATER RAFTING

CHAVURAH GROUPS
Chavurah Groups small groups of like-minded students who meet regularly to socialize, engage in Jewish learning, explore Atlanta, or share any other interests and passions. This is a chance for students to foster deep connections with a small peer group, build long-lasting relationships, and grow personally and Jewishly throughout their time in college.
21+ PROGRAMMING
Network with other 21+ Jews! Whether it's a 'Sip and Paint' night out, or our classic Jews with Brews at a local Atlanta brewery, 21+ events allow our older students to make connections with each other and explore what Atlanta has to offer as they approach graduation.

SHABBAT
Shabbat is always a wonderful time to unwind from your week and connect with Hillel friends. In the midst of the COVID-19 Pandemic, that doesn’t change. What does change is what exactly Shabbat at Hillel looks like. Right now, we are excited to partner with our friends at Chabad to Provide “Shabbat To Go” every week.
Get a homemade meal, challah, candles, and Kiddush, in a take-home bag. For the most up to date information on Shabbat offerings, follow us on Instagram @hillelatgt or email Lauren at lrekhelman@gthillel.org
