I plan to engage Jewish students by actively participating in campus events, creating inclusive programming, and connecting with students individually. Building genuine relationships will be my priority, utilizing both group activities and one-on-one interactions to foster a vibrant Jewish community.

Certainly! In college, I led a student organization focused on cultural events. I coordinated workshops that promoted engagement and dialogue among diverse student groups, ensuring everyone felt included. This experience taught me the importance of collaboration and creative problem-solving.

To me, Jewish community means creating a supportive environment that fosters connection, education, and personal growth. It’s about building relationships and providing opportunities for individuals to explore their Jewish identities in a welcoming space.

I believe in addressing challenges by promoting open communication and actively listening to different perspectives. Understanding individual needs and embracing diversity will help me create inclusive programming that resonates with all students.

I would leverage social media, collaborate with student organizations, and utilize word-of-mouth strategies. Engaging students in the planning process will also create ownership, sparking interest and excitement about upcoming programs.

As a Springboard Fellow, I would prioritize responsibilities by assessing immediate needs, setting clear goals, and maintaining an organized schedule. Regular check-ins with my team and students will guide my focus toward the most impactful tasks.

Mentorship will be fundamental to my personal and professional growth. I plan to seek guidance from experienced colleagues to refine my skills, gain insights, and apply lessons learned throughout the fellowship to maximize my impact.

I see my role as a guide and facilitator, providing students with resources and experiences to explore their Jewish identities. I will create engaging discussions and activities that allow everyone to express and celebrate their individuality within the community.

Hillel's mission is to connect Jewish students to their faith, culture, and community, fostering a lifelong commitment to Jewish life, learning, and leadership. I fully support this mission and am eager to contribute to its realization through creative programming.

I want to participate in the Springboard Fellowship at Hillel International because it aligns perfectly with my passion for community building and impact. The unique opportunity to enhance Jewish student life and contribute to a collaborative environment excites me, and I look forward to growing alongside my peers.
