Together, We Can Create a Safer Future for Jewish Students

In the face of over 400 reported incidents of antisemitism on Ontario campuses, our resolve strengthens. The Hillel Strong Emergency Campaign aims to raise $1 Million to sustain and enhance programming, leadership training, and create safe spaces for Jewish students.

We are the go-to Jewish organization on campus.

Hillel Ontario engages more Jewish students each year than any of the other 850 local Hillels around the world.

Our Mission

To be a compelling community for all Jewish students, one where they gather, celebrate, and develop the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to thrive in a rapidly changing world.

Our Vision

Generations of empowered Jews who are joyful, passionate, and resilient, have an enduring relationship with Jewish tradition and Israel, and feel a sense of belonging in Jewish communities.
