Hillel 2011: The Network Annual Report

91815.indd 1 10/19/11 7:55 PM Hillel’s Vision To inspire every Jewish student to make an enduring commitment to Jewish life. Hillel’s Mission To enrich the lives of Jewish undergraduate and graduate students so that they may enrich the Jewish people and the world.

Hillel pursues its mission by:

„ creating a pluralistic, welcoming and inclusive environment; „ fostering student growth and the balance in being distinctively Jewish and universally human; „ advancing tzedek (social justice), Jewish learning and spirituality; „ embracing Israel and global Jewish peoplehood; „ delivering excellence, innovation, accountability and results.

91815.indd 2 10/19/11 7:55 PM Hillel 2011: The Network

The concept of the global social network is as old as the Jewish people. Ever since Abraham left his home to settle in the Land of Israel, the Jewish people have journeyed back and forth between homeland and diaspora, maintaining connections of law and language, blood and faith that have sustained us through millennia of sacrifice and success. Jewish literature is a record of the conversations among scholars across borders and generations.

Today, electrons have replaced parchment and information is shared instantaneously around the world with the touch of a smartphone key.

Hillel’s network starts on campuses and in communities where young people serve as “connectors” who create mini-communities of their Jewish peers. These mini-communities are tied together into local Hillels that collaborate with one another locally, regionally and internationally. Meanwhile, student relationships forged during Taglit-Birthright Israel trips and alternative breaks are sustained on Facebook. Professionals from different countries train together, both in-person and virtually. Philanthropists from one nation support Hillel’s work in another. Hillel’s international network of students, professionals and lay leaders is the latest manifestation of the concept of NODO\LVUDHO, global Jewish peoplehood.

In 2011, Hillel added thousands to its worldwide community of students and supporters. This annual report tells their story and celebrates the global social network that is Hillel.

The backbone of Hillel’s network is a partnership of students, professionals and lay leaders working together to fulfill the organization’s mission on more than 550 campuses around the globe. The Board of Directors of Hillel: The Foundation for Jewish Campus Life comprises stakeholders from a variety of locations and backgrounds who set the organization’s policies and hold fiduciary responsibility for its ongoing operation. In 2011, Hillel provided training to its volunteer leadership at events in Philadelphia and St. Louis as well as online.

The International Board of Governors comprises men and women who make a significant financial commitment to the organization and offer vision for Hillel’s direction. Many members provide additional support for programs at the international and local levels. In 2011, Lynn Schusterman’s Charles and Lynn Schusterman Family Foundation helped create Hillel’s Center for Israel Engagement to spearhead Hillel’s efforts to engage, educate and advocate for Israel. Dr Lynne B Harrison provided a naming gift for the Leadership and Professional International Development (LAPID) Initiative to teach engagement, leadership, and professional skills to Hillel professionals and students. Through his family foundation, David Einhorn enabled Hillel to launch Ask Big Questions, a new initiative to foster civility on college campuses. David and Abby Joseph Cohen created The David M. Cohen Fellowship to provide customized professional leadership development for a select group of Hillel professionals.

Hillel mid-level professionals seeking to advance their careers receive professional development opportunities through the Debra S. and Joseph S. Weinberg Accelerate Executive Training Program and at the annual Hillel Institute, where they convene for four days of training, including the New Directors Institute, made possible by the generous support of the Julian Sandler Endowment for Executive Leadership Development, named for former Hillel Board of Directors Chair Julian Sandler, z”l and supported by his wife, Board of Governors Member Nina Sandler.

Students come together during the summer for the Hillel Institute, a five-day event held on the campus of the Washington University in St. Louis, where they learn how to best create meaningful relationships with their peers and build the Hillel network on their campuses. These young “connectors” will bring students together to enrich their lives, advance their Jewish journeys and strengthen the future of the Jewish people.

“Today’s Hillel is a true global network, enabling students to connect with each other and with their Jewish identities anywhere in the world. We can all be proud of the contributions our students, professionals and lay leaders are making to ensure a brighter future for the Jewish people.”

91815.indd 7 10/19/11 7:55 PM The Personal Network

Hillel believes in building its network one student, one relationship at a time.

The core of Hillel’s work is our peer-engagement methodology. Hillel’s Campus Entrepreneurs Initiative (CEI) hires uninvolved Jewish students to engage 60 fellow students and advance their Jewish journeys together. An allied program, Hillel’s Peer Network Engagement Internship (PNEI), applies the principles of CEI training to a smaller cohort of student interns with the goal of connecting 40 uninvolved students with Jewish life. On ten campuses, Hillel’s CEI interns work closely with Senior Jewish Educators (SJE), talented teachers with deep Jewish knowledge and authentic Jewish personalities who serve as organizers and mentors for at least 180 students’ Jewish journeys, focusing particularly on those students who are not already involved in Jewish life on campus. Altogether in 2010-11, 260-plus SJEs and CEI and PNEI interns engaged nearly 15,000 students on close to 50 campuses. Hillel’s peer-engagement programs are funded with a five-year, $10.7-million grant from The Jim Joseph Foundation.

PRAISE-WORTHY PROGRAMS: ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF OUR EFFECTIVENESS

Hillel’s peer-engagement methodology earned significant kudos in 2011. An independent panel of researchers — Research Success Technologies and Ukeles Associates, Inc. — found that Hillel’s SJE ad CEI programs are “effective in reaching large numbers of previously less-connected Jewish students and facilitating their personal Jewish growth. This is an exciting finding even in its early stages.”

Hillel also was named one of the nation’s 50 most innovative Jewish nonprofits in 6OLQJVKRW·¶, a resource guide for Jewish creativity. In making the award, Slingshot wrote: “One optimistic evaluator raves, ‘This program, which started as a small scale pilot to test assumptions, is on the verge of being embraced by every Hillel in the country.’ Evaluators are also excited to see that ‘while many organizations talk about using physical social networks to expand, Hillel has actually created a program that not only galvanizes Jews through friends, but also communicates substantive Jewish content.’”nt.’”

What does Hillel’s peer-engagement methodology mean to students? Mark Leybengrubub, a sophomore at the University of Maryland, College Park, has one objective in buildingng his network as a CEI intern: “I can’t wait to use all of the innovative engagement strategies I’ve learned to help connect Jewish students at Maryland to their heritagee and to each other.”

PROFESSIONALS EXTEND THE NETWORK

Hillel’s SJEs are earning recognition throughout the Jewish world and beyond. Tufts Hillel SJE Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg was nominated for the 2010 Sami Rohr Prize for Jewish Literature in non-fiction for her book Surprised by God: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Religion, which chronicles her personal path to faith. UCLA Hillel SJE Rabbi Shmuly Yanklowitz was profiled in the PBS series “The Calling,” a four-hour documentary that follows seven young clergy members from four differentt religious groups through their training. Rabbi Yanklowitz also earned a coveted invitation to the World Economic Forum meeting in Davos, Switzerland.

Globalization begins on campus, where students from many countries, backgrounds and beliefs come together to form a microcosm of the global community. The college years offer an opportunity for young people to learn how to get along, despite their Repair the World, 2010 differences, in an intense environment in which they live, work and socialize together, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. With the help of such invaluable partners as the Jewish Foundations of North America (JFNA) — whose 2011 General Assembly conference shares a “network” theme with this report — Hillel is helping students take pride in their Jewish identity while building civility on campus, in the surrounding community and in the world at large. By creating amicable campuses today, Hillel hopes to contribute to a better future.

TZEDEK AND TIKKUN OLAM ON THE ROAD, ACROSS THE OCEAN

Hillel’s Alternative Break program enables Jewish students to travel outside their communities to perform meaningful service. By combining these service-learning trips with Jewish content, students gain an appreciation for the Jewish concept of tzedek (social justice) and tikkun olam (repairing the world). In 2011, approximately 2,000 students traveled across North America and around the world on 319 different trips. Hillel partnered with 14 providers to organize these trips, including the Jewish Funds for Justice, City Year, the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, the American Jewish World Service and the Jewish Farm School.

One of Hillel’s most important partners in promoting service is Repair the World, an organization that works to inspire American Jews and their communities to give their time and effort to help those in need. In 2011, Repair the World provided Hillel with $300,000 to support Alternative Break opportunities. In addition, Repair the World undertook a new program in which it provided six campus Hillels with substantial funding to support a designated Repair the World staff person and Repair the World interns. Since this partnership began in late 2010, Hillel has engaged more than 1,800 students and young adults in local Jewish service and social action.

THE SAGE’S VISION BROUGHT TO LIFE

Hillel’s tzedek and tikkun olam programs fulfill our namesake’s maxim: “If I am not for myself, who will be? If I am only for myself, what am I?” Or, in the words of Sydney Gross, a North Carolina Hillel student who traveled to Miami with Hillel’s City Year alternative break: “This trip is quickly bringing to the forefrontforefront the idea that Judaism advocates for helping everybody, not onlyy Jews. We care that others suffer, and we want to hear about it and learn how to fix it. We want to feel some of what others feel, if only for a littlettle bit, in order to understand why we are all different and why that is special and beautiful.”

NOSHIN RABBANI Student, Baruch College, Class of 2013

“All students, regardless of ´their backgrounds or beliefs, confront the same existential issues on campus. By Asking Big Questions together, we can uncover the multitude of ways in which we are similar and different, allowing us to determine what bonds us as human beings.”

ANASTASIA MEDYSTKA Student, Baruch College, Class of 2014

In 2011, Hillel piloted its Facing Change initiative, a national program to promote civil discourse and collective dialogue. With an initial grant from the Einhorn Family Charitable Trust, the program hired 27 interns on eight campuses. At the conclusion of the year, the program was expanded nationally and given a new focus as Ask Big Questions. Through ABQ, Hillels will bring together a core of interns of all faiths and backgrounds to lead their campuses in promoting civility by discussing life’s most challenging issues. The ABQ concept was pioneered at Northwestern University Hillel through the Campus Entrepreneurs Initiative. The first cadre of ABQ interns was trained at the 2011 Hillel Institute.

The Global Network No matter how we say it, Hillel is a global network, connecting Jewish college students around the world with each other and with their Jewish identities. Fittingly, examples of the reach and power of our network are as geographically diverse — and as innovative — as our students and professionals.

In addition to locations in Canada and the United States, Hillel has groups in Israel, Latin America and the former Soviet Union (FSU), as well as affiliates in Australia and Great Britain. In 2001, Hillel strengthened its global network by providing training to professionals from outside North America through the Harrison Leadership and Professional International Development (LAPID) Initiative and at the Hillel Institute.

In the FSU, Hillels adapted the peer-engagement methodology pioneered in North America through the VKonnect program. In 2011, students in the FSU were trained to be “connectors” at a seminar and returned home to build “mini-communities.” During a four-month pilot period, the program engaged 650 previously uninvolved students in Jewish life. Based on this success, the program was expanded to eight communities in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus.

And of course, Israel is at the center of Hillel’s network. On campuses around the world, Hillels engage, educate and advocate for Israel. Hillel brings thousands of students to Israel every year through Taglit-Birthright Israel and other programs. And within Israel, Hillel Israel seeks to re-ignite Jewish life by engaging students and young adults through meaningful Jewish experiences at eight centers nationwide.

CENTER FOR ISRAEL ENGAGEMENT, JAFI ISRAEL FELLOWS, LOCAL SUPPORT

In 2011, Hillel prepared to confront a global anti-Israel campaign calling for the boycott, divestment and sanctioning of Israel, establishing a new Center for Israel Engagement (CIE) to bring together and augment our existing Israel educational and engagement programs and resources. The CIE began to build Israel Centers of Excellence to proactively lead an educational Israel agenda for diverse college students. It laid the groundwork for Focus: Israel, a certificate program for Hillel professionals to develop a cadre of influential, pro-active and knowledgeable staff. With a renewed focus on increasing student travel to Israel through programs such as Taglit-Birthright Israel and Alternative Break Israel trips, the CIE sought to VKonnect students, Russia centralize the role of Taglit-Birthright Israel in local Hillels’ efforts to help students advance on their Jewish journeys.

Recognizing the centrality of college campuses to promoting Jewish identity and support for the State of Israel, the Jewish Agency for Israel (JAFI) agreed to double the number of Israel Fellows sent to campuses through Hillel. Israel Fellows are recent Israeli college graduates and veterans of the Israel Defense Force who work with Hillel to educate the campus about Israel and to promote Israel study and work programs. Beginning in August 2011, 50 JAFI Israel Fellows were sent to North American campuses. Meanwhile, 50 Masa Israel Journey interns promoted long-term Israel programs in cooperation with Hillel.

Local Hillels demonstrated tremendous creativity in bringing Israel to campus in 2011. University of Arizona Hillel presented its annual Israelpalooza; Baruch College Hillel, in collaboration with the Black History Month Committee, created the “Heal the World Exhibit,” showing Israel’s efforts to provide medical attention following the earthquake in Haiti; the Jewish University

91815.indd 16 10/19/11 7:55 PM Center of Pittsburgh and UCLA Hillel mounted large-scale Israel marketing campaigns to educate students about the facets of Israel not portrayed in the news. Many campuses sponsored Israel Weeks or Israel Months, including Berkeley Hillel, Brooklyn College Hillel, New York University Hillel and many more. George Washington University Hillel hosted an Israel Peace Month featuring an Israeli cultural night, and other interactive events.

BUILDING ON SUCCESS IN ISRAEL

In addition to ongoing programs at its campus centers, Hillel Israel sponsored “Hilleluyah,” a gala dinner that honored founding president Rabbi Yossie Goldman, and Hillel Israel’s first national day of service, in which students from across the country cleared damage in the Carmel Forest caused by devastating fires earlier in the year.

According to IDC student Mila Finkelshtain, who participated in a joint program of Baruch College, IDC and Kiev Hillels sponsored by the Nadav Fund and the UJA Federation of New York, Hillel Israel has an important role to play in the Jewish state. “I never analyzed what Judaism meant to me, and meeting Jews from Kiev and New York through Hillel helped me explore what it means to be Jewish in Israel and in the Diaspora. Hillel Israel is very successful at connecting people through global Jewish culture.”

“In Uruguay, Hillel inspires Jewish students to stand up for the community. Through our Business Club, Social Club, Tzedek Projects and many other Leadership Programs, Hillel provides the best framework to develop future leaders.”

PATRICIA ALAZRAKI Student Life Director, Hillel Uruguay

“Before Hillel came to Latin America, college-age Jews had no way to connect with one another. They lacked opportunities to experience a pluralistic atmosphere or to gain the tools they needed to build their own Jewish future as pro-active leaders. Today, Hillel is playing an indispensible role as the proud center of young adult Jewish life in Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay.”
