PASSOVER

The 2013 Schinazi Family Passover Experience at Hillel at Emory

Passover begins with the first Seder on March 25, 2013.
Reserve your seat now!

Hillel at Emory is proud to offer a wide variety of Passover experiences, meals, and celebrations.

Sponsor a Seder

For Hillel to coordinate and provide Seders and other Passover experiences to the Jewish students at Emory comes at considerable cost. Please help ensure that every Jewish student has access to a unique, meaningful Passover experience this year.

Seders-to-Go

Hillel at Emory is proud to announce the fourth annual Seder-to-Go program. Now you can host a Passover seder with your own friends, in your own space, in your own style. You invite your friends--we'll help with everything else!

What can Hillel provide?
Your Seder2Go kit will include haggadot, matzah, seder plate (with ritual items), haroset, marror (horseradish), parsely, kippot (yarmulkes), kosher grape juice, candles, catering menus, plates, cups, kiddush cups, utensils, napkins. Hillel will also offer a special workshop for seder leaders (required to receive the mini-grant) and a mini-grant to help subsidize the cost of meals. You will be able to pick-up your seder-to-go kit from Hillel on March 24.

How does the Mini-Grant work?
Hillel will reimburse $5 per Emory student at your seder, or the total cost of your receipts, whichever is less. You must submit a sign-in sheet and copies of your receipts by April 7 to receive your mini-grant. Hillel will not reimburse for leavened bread, shellfish products, pork products, or alcohol.

Hillel at Emory works hard to meet the religious needs of Jewish students during the High Holidays and to make the holidays engaging and meaningful for students away from home.

Other Holidays

Sukkot
Every year Hillel builds a Sukkah in the middle of campus. Through the Book-a-Sukkah program, student clubs can reserve the Hillel Sukkah for group meetings, events, or just for group lunch. The Sukkah serves as a central location for Jewish life during the holiday.

Chanukkah
Hillel partners with the Chabad at Emory for a public lighting of the Menorah. Since the holiday generally falls around finals, the menorah lives outside the library so students can enjoy the lighting as a study break.

Purim
On the weekend of Purim, the Greek Hillel Council throws a party for Emory students, complete with Megillah readings, costumes, and dancing.
