Adopt a Shabbat

Our largest event every week is Shabbat dinner. After a short service in the chapel, students gather to relax after a long week of studying and responsibilities with their friends and enjoy a home cooked kosher Shabbat dinner. There is no cost to any students for attending Shabbat and we average 40-70 students for each Shabbat. Many parents, grandparents, alumni, community members, and businesses choose to sponsor specific meals to celebrate and commemorate unique events. We invite you to sponsor a dinner in honor of a student, an alumni, a wedding anniversary, or a birthday.

Please choose three potential dates for your sponsorship. We will do our best to give you your first priority date, depending on availability.

To make a recurring donation, please reach out to the Executive Director, Ashley Holt, at ashley@iowahillel.org or at (319) 338-0778.
