Pledge An Hour-
Help Volunteer to Repair the
World One of our donors was
so
inspired by our efforts that she offered a challenge
grant, giving Hillel's Tzedek program $1 for every
new person who volunteers through our Pledge an
Hour
campaign, up to $10,000. The goal of this
campaign is to help repair the world by encouraging
people to volunteer some time, making a difference
in their community or in the world. It doesn't take
much, whether you spend an hour changing light
bulbs
in your home to eco-friendly ones, or visit the sick
in the hospital.
And now, giving just an hour of your time can help
fund some of Hillel's social justice activities on
campus.
