Inspiring, challenging, and empowering Jewish

Hillel: Our Leadership Laboratory
Leadership in Action
Dear Friends:
The Mission of Hillel of Greater Philadelphia is to enrich the lives
of Jewish students so that they may enrich the Jewish People and
the world. Hillel’s immediate goal is to inspire, challenge, and empower
Philadelphia area students to explore their Judaism, build Jewish
community, and appreciate Israel as an integral part of their Jewish
identities. At HGP’s Vision and Values Celebration on June 10, 2014,
we honored five students who exemplify this mission through their
leadership on campus. Here are two of their stories.
classical and contemporary Judaic texts, traveling
to Israel, volunteering in communities around
the world, and generally having fun with their
peers helps them discover the “value-add” that
Judaism can bring to their lives.
I have been graced with a career that brings me
in daily contact with young adults who delight in
discovering their Judaism and determining their place
in the Jewish community. Working with such young
adults continuously renews my faith in the future
of the Jewish people. The goal of this publication
is to share with you the satisfaction that my Hillel
colleagues and I experience every day and to tell
how Hillel of Greater Philadelphia works its magic.
Our student-run organizations on twenty-two
campuses in the Philadelphia area are a “leadership
laboratory,” providing more than 600 student
leaders with experiences, mentored by Hillel
educators, that hone their skills and prepare them
to change the world. The opportunities that we
provide help them discover themselves as Jews,
determine what they can contribute to their
communities, and choose their place in society.
They become Jewish adults who go on to shape
their adult Jewish world.
Hillel’s purpose is to inspire a new generation of
Jews with an enthusiasm for their Judaism and
a love of the Jewish community. Our success is
measured not in the number of students our
activities engage – as impressive as that is – but
in the passion with which our graduates pursue
their Judaism after they leave campus and the
impact they have on the broader Jewish community.
Please enjoy this publication and share with us
the satisfaction earned by your support of our
great organization.
Our success stands on two pillars: the joy that
Hillel helps students find in exploring and
celebrating their Judaism and the leadership skills
they develop through their Hillel involvement.
In addition to the thousands of events each year
on campuses throughout the city, more than 5,200
students meet with staff one-on-one for mentoring,
visioning, and exploring how to deepen their
experiences as students, as leaders, and as Jews.

As the head of PR, Ali has built a social media presence as well as an in-person
presence through office hours where students can come by and chat with
her and other Hillel leaders. She’s especially proud of the successes they’ve
had with holiday celebrations on campus, including “Promakkah,” and,
for the first time in 2014, a traditional Passover seder. Her role has prepared
her for leadership in Jewish communities wherever she goes. Ali was
elected President of West Chester Hillel for the 2014-15 academic year.
She is very excited to take her leadership skills to the next level.
As an undergrad, Barry Taller (‘Temple Dental
’15) helped create Hillel at Fairleigh Dickinson
University, so when he arrived at Temple Dental,
it came naturally to him to reinvigorate the chapter
of Alpha Omega (AO), the Jewish Dental Fraternity,
which had been inactive for over a decade. As he
got involved in city-wide events through Hillel’s
Grad Network, he brought his vision and leadership
back to campus. “I love getting peers involved in Jewish life. Their faces light
up because it brings them back to something they may have forgotten about.”

Leaders
Hillel of Greater Philadelphia engages students
as leaders, encourages innovation, and provides
an opportunity to create micro-communities
within the larger campus structure.

Hillel students’ experiences celebrating Shabbat
and holidays in a variety of traditions, learning
Hillel by

Ali Frank (West Chester ’16) had a strong Jewish
identity growing up, and she entered college
planning to continue her Jewish involvement.
Her freshman year, she was disappointed by the
lack of Jewish life on campus. She says, “I got this
great picture in my head of Hillel growing and
having it be a home away from home.” Through
her personal quest to create a comfortable
community for herself, she and several fellow sophomore have successfully
grown Hillel at West Chester to be, “a big thing on campus.”

By networking with AO leadership locally and nationally, he’s created
a Jewish path for his peers to make professional connections. He says,
“The challenges of owning a dental practice and working with people are
very similar to leading a student organization. I hope to remain involved
in Hillel and AO after I graduate. My goal is not only to extend the Jewish
community for students today, but to leave a legacy.”

can play in making the world a better place through

I loved Shabbat dinner at Temple Hillel as an undergrad. During
grad school, the Grad Network helped me get reconnected. When
I went to the new Temple Hillel building on Shabbat and saw 100
students having dinner, it showed that we can all come together
as a community. I want to work with alumni on giving back to
Hillel. Helping students and contributing to Jewish life on campus
has been really rewarding. I’m involved in the Renaissance Group
at Federation and I’m finding overlap between my professional
life and my volunteer leadership.

Israel really gave me a sense of what
it means to be Jewish. Not only did
I meet amazing people on Birthright,
but I gained experiences that will last
a lifetime.

PHILADELPHIA BOARD
of DIRECTORS
My father was on the HGP board for over a decade, and he was always
so positive about the organization. It brought him joy, and he passed
that legacy onto me. I’m a community organizer and I want to find
my place to be impactful within the board. I enjoy being a role
model for students at smaller campuses and say to them, “You are
incredible.” I also want to connect my friends in different industries
to HGP to create mentorship opportunities. I’m a connector, and my
strength is bringing people together to make great things happen.
Sara Landman, Hillel of Greater Philadelphia
Board of Directors
I got involved with Drexel Hillel through AEPi. All pledges have
to go to Hillel, and I eventually became community service chair
and President. Hillel has to cater to a lot of different perspectives,
which was a good lesson for me to learn. My role on the board
has been engaging young alumni and helping with technology.
Hillel builds networks and connects the generations. I’m targeting
AEPi alumni through a fundraising campaign with the message
that even though you graduated, Hillel is still important to you
and to the broader Jewish community.
Students bond over their commitment
to Jewish life on campus at the Hillels

Hillel of Greater Philadelphia’s Vision & Values
Celebration was a tremendous success. Over 250
friends and community members were in attendance.
We were proud to Honor Robert A. Fox and Pay
Tribute to Sherrie Savett for their leadership in
the community. Bonnie and Jay Eisner served as
Event Chairs and Richard J. Fox and Edward H. Rosen
were the Honorary Chairs. We recognized 5 student
exemplars of leadership, who were nominated by
their directors and peers.

Thanks to tremendous support from the community,
we raised over $200,000, which enables us to serve
all of our campuses and program centers. We
exceeded last year’s fundraising goals and are
grateful to all of our supporters, corporate sponsors,
lay leaders and volunteers.
