Challah for Hunger brings people together from across campus to bake and sell challah in an effort to raise money and awareness for hunger in our own community. Every other Monday, we bake and then braid the challahs. We then sell them on Wednesdays on campus (Mason Hall) and at Hillel to spread our love of challahs to the rest of the Michigan community! We donate 50% of our proceeds to the Maize and Blue Cupboard on campus and the other 50% to Swipe Out Hunger. Baking and selling the challah are both great opportunities to make new friends and socialize while helping a good cause! Follow us on Instagram @umchallah and join our groupme.

Feeling sick? Then you or a friend can call on Hillel’s very own chicken soup free delivery hotline. The hotline is run entirely by students who feel passionate about the Jewish value of visiting the sick and helping out students on campus who feel under the weather and want to help brighten up their day.
