Why support UM Hillel?

UM Hillel is a leader in creating a meaningful, inclusive and pluralistic Jewish life on campus, and for the larger Miami community. We have reached our award-winning status with the support of people like you - parents and families, alumni, Miami community, and most importantly - students!

University of Miami Hillel is a stand-alone 501c3 nonprofit organization that is fully dependent on the support of the community, which it is committed to enhance.

We invite you to become a part of our movement, and a story of success. We are audited on the annual basis, and proud to be fully transparent with our investors!

All online transactions on UM Hillel’s website offer bank-level security.

Join Family Circle

“As a UM alum, I am thrilled that my son is attending UM. When I was asked if I wanted to get involved as a parent and an alum, I was excited and honored to participate in an organization that enriches the lives of Jewish students on campus.”
