Haverford Hillel is an organization dedicated to hosting a variety of Jewish religious, cultural, social and education events for the Haverford College community. We host Shabbat services and dinner every Friday night. Anyone, regardless of religious affiliation or experience is welcome at any Hillel event. Anyone is welcome to come for services, dinner, or both.
We also put on special events for holidays, such as a Hannukah party, a Purim Party, and Passover Seders. This past year we had both a traditional Seder and a chocolate Seder!
Haverford Hillel also places emphasis on community service, as it is important to us to give back.
While Haverford Hillel does not endorse a particular standpoint on Israel/Palestine political issues, we encourage dialogue and education concerning the conflict. We will advertise for any Israel-related program that asks us to, but we don't take any particular position.
If there is any project that you would like to have us partner with you on, we are more than open to that idea. Just contact us!
