About us

As an affiliate of the largest Jewish student organization in the world, and now the largest global regional Hillel system, Hillel Ontario works to amplify Jewish campus life across nine universities, with a combined Jewish student population of over 13,000.

Hillel engages with, empowers, and inspires the leadership of more Jewish university and college students than all other endeavours combined. By promoting Jewish identity through life-changing trips and campus initiatives, cultivating student leadership and embracing religious, and political, diversity in an inclusive environment, students learn to make a meaningful impact on the future of the Jewish people and the world, while they grow intellectually, socially, and spiritually.

Mission

Enriching the lives of Ontario Jewish students so that they may enrich the Jewish community, Israel and the world.

Vision

We envision an Ontario where every Jewish student is inspired to make an enduring commitment to Jewish life, learning and Israel.

Hillel Ontario works in partnership with its Board of Directors to effectively manage the organization and strive towards achieving its vision.
