Sponsor a Shabbat
Every Friday night over 200 students flock to UF Hillel for our FREE weekly Shabbat dinner. There are no barriers to participation. No reservations are required. Students just show up, and as our tradition tells us, there is always a place at our table. It is the warm, friendly environment that encourages students to return for other programs.
We need your help. In order to continue offering Shabbat Dinners and the wide array of programming throughout the year, we rely on community, parent and alumni support. Please consider one of the following Sponsorship Levels to enable us to continue offering Friday Night dinners which have become so important to our students.
- Patron Sponsorship: For your donation of $4,000 you can sponsor an entire Shabbat dinner
- Sponsorship: For your donation of $2000 you can co-sponsor a Shabbat dinner
- Joint Sponsorship: For your donation of $1,000 you can co-sponsor a student for a year of Shabbat dinners
- One student for a year: For your donation of $500 you can sponsor a student for a semester of Shabbat dinners
You must see it to believe it, but trust me! Shabbat dinner at UF Hillel is a most inspiring experience.
As parents and grandparents, we hope that our children and grandchildren will maintain their Jewish identity as they embark on their adult lives. UF Hillel has accomplished what we all hope for — hundreds of students joining together for a Shabbat dinner because they want to, because they enjoy being together, and because it adds meaning to their lives.
They get what they want and we get what we want — young adults remaining actively Jewish.
And all we have to do is to provide our support. We invite you to experience a UF Hillel Shabbat at any time. Just call or email Rabbi Yoni at 352-372-2900 and let us know when you wish to join us.
