Find Your Flock with Hillel Pods

UHart Hillel is excited to offer you our newest program, Hillel Pods! The goal is to bring our Jewish community together whether you are on campus or virtual this Spring semester. For Seven weeks, you and your pod can participate in virtual and physical events that will earn you points. You can gather as a group for virtual game nights, community service, study time, take a walk outside together, and much more. Each week, Hillel staff will also be sending flash challenges to complete so you and your team can rack up even more points!
