About Us

We are an organization that is dedicated to promoting and preserving Jewish life on campus through various meetings and holiday celebrations. We meet once a week on Fridays at 5:00 and recite the Shabbat blessings together. Our Hillel is also connected to the national Hillel organization. To find out more about Hillel, go here.

Beth Sholom Temple of Stafford County is 10 minutes away by car and is always a source of warmth and learning. Their doors are always open to Mary Washington students, and our Hillel/JSA is always offering rides to anyone who wants to go!
