Hillels of North Texas

Hillels of North Texas is a pluralistic, inclusive environment where all students are given the opportunity to develop their Jewish identity. We encourage every student to explore what it means to be Jewish and to forge their own path towards becoming leaders. Through the hard work of staff and students, we are able to serve the University of North Texas, the University of Texas at Dallas, Texas Woman's University, and Collin College students from DFW and beyond. We foster the Jewish community on campuses and provide students with impactful programming for Shabbat, holidays, cultural events, and Jewish learning unique to our organization.

Today, we ask you to partner with us for North Texas Giving Day. Together, we can ensure that every Jewish student gets to explore their Jewish identity and make lasting connections. Our goal this Giving Day is to raise $5,000 to make sure we can continue to provide a home away from home for our students. With your support, we know we can meet this goal! Thank you for joining us and supporting our mission!
