For parents & families
Parents and Family Circle
Every gift to UCF Hillel ensures that Jewish students have a welcoming home away from home – a place to celebrate Shabbat and holidays, build lifelong friendships, discover their leadership potential, and strengthen their connection to Jewish life. By joining the UCF Family Circle, your family becomes a partner in creating meaningful Jewish experiences that will stay will students long after graduation. UCF Hillel is a real community for your student, with weekly Shabbat dinners, free food throughout the week, and people who notice when they walk in the door.
