Thanksgiving Dinner for the Homeless: The Tanger Hillel at Brooklyn College hosts an annual Thanksgiving dinner for homeless New Yorkers. Hillel partners with student clubs, fraternities, sororities, and local agencies, including the New York City Department of Homeless Services to facilitate the event. Close to 200 New Yorkers in need plus 170 volunteers attended the festive meal every year. In addition to the dinner banquet, the evening is complete with music, dancing, entertainment and of course turkey. SpringBoardFellow@bchillel.org

Passover Delivery for Seniors: The Tanger Hillel at Brooklyn College organizes a Passover Package Delivery program to senior citizens.

Starting two weeks before Passover, students work tirelessly to assemble food packages for the underprivileged seniors and deliver the food to over 300 families. SpringBoardFellow@bchillel.org

The Annual Fashion Show FUNdraiser is one of our calendar highlights. Each year, a team of students volunteer their time.

After School Program: Creating Opportunities for Children in Need provides a unique opportunity for students of every denomination to partner in making a difference in the life of a homeless child. Brooklyn College students eat dinner with the children, play games, read stories, and help with their homework. Each week, over 30 children from a local homeless shelter come to the Hillel.

Alternative Break: Week of Good Deeds is about service and learning; a different way to spend time off from school. We reach out to local community partners in soup kitchens, homeless shelters, nursing homes and other local agencies to help those in need. In addition to local opportunities, we travel to Florida to help terminally ill children and their families. These projects embody the spirit of community and connect to our core Jewish values of Tikkun Olam/Repairing the World, Chessed/Kindness and Tzedek/Charity. SpringBoardFellow@bchillel.org
