Our Mission

Enriching the lives of Jewish students so that they may enrich the Jewish people and the world. 

Hillel’s network of dedicated student leaders, professionals, and volunteers has encouraged generations of young adults to celebrate Jewish learning and living, pursue social justice, and connect to their peers and the global Jewish people. By creating opportunities for social, intellectual, and spiritual engagement with Judaism,   Hillel at Ithaca College provides students with the values and experiences to make a meaningful impact on the future of the Jewish people and the world.


1 in 4 students at Ithaca College identify as Jewish—and each year, hundreds choose to connect, lead, and celebrate with Hillel.
