Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵAPPHillel was founded in June 2015 and is the result of years of a thriving Jewish Student Union and a long-standing community of faculty, staff and students.  A grassroots Jewish community on campus, coupled with a generous grant from the Kranzberg Family Foundation, provided the first staffed Jewish Programming Facilitator role on campus in 2012.  Consistent growth and a dedicated community led Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵAPP to create a full-time staff role when Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵAPPHillel was established in 2015.  Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵAPPHillel is proud to be comprised of active student leaders and friends, a highly supportive campus and St. Louis community, a thriving and growing Jewish community, dedicated faculty and staff and a committed group of Hillel Advisory Council volunteers.  We are a warm and open pluralistic community, welcoming those from the entire spectrum of Jewish life, including friends of different faiths and backgrounds.  ALL are ALWAYS welcome at Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵAPPHillel activities!<\/p>\n<p>Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵAPP is proud to be located in the heart of the Jewish community, in west St. Louis County. We are located across the street from the first Jewish congregation to be established in St. Louis (in 1837!) and the oldest congregation west of the Mississippi River. We are within 5 minutes of 5 inviting congregational communities, including Reform, Conservative, Traditional\/Reconstructionist and Orthodox traditions. Our students enjoy warm personal relationships with many congregational communities, Cantors and Rabbis, and find a home away from home by volunteering, teaching religious and Hebrew school, participating in programs and services and being included in members\u2019 homes for holiday meals and celebrations.<\/p>\n<p>We are also proud to be located near St. Louis\u2019 two <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jccstl.org\">JCC locations<\/a>: one 15 minutes to the east of campus in Creve Coeur (Staenberg Family Complex) and one 10 minutes to the west on campus in Chesterfield (Fox Building).\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"grid-container\">\n<div class=\"grid-x grid-margin-x\">\n<div class=\"large-6 medium-6 cell\">\nË¿¹ÏÊÓƵAPPstudents have access to discounted JCC membership in addition to access to brand new fitness facilities on campus.<\/p>\n<p>Kosher dining is available on campus through Fresh Ideas, Maryville\u2019s dining partner, and can be arranged to meet student needs.
