Give Back to Chabad of SLO & Cal Poly
Some say that Chanukah is a story about a fight for light. Today, I’m going to ask you for your help... because that light is desperately needed today.
Sarah is a sophomore. In the second year of Covid, she has never had a “normal” college experience. In addition to the regular stresses of college life, and the pandemic pandemonium, she worries about being Jewish on campus.
Sarah worries about so much. Anti-Semitism rising on campuses, her mental health, loneliness, doing well in her classes, and finding a safe place to practice her Judaism.
You can give her light.
Your gift will give Sarah so much: Courage. Inspiration. Connection. Community.
Most of all, a place where she will find warm and welcoming people who will listen to her. YOU can give her this place.
And she’s not the only one. Many students are suffering from loneliness and depression. They need to feel part of a strong, loving, and supportive community.
You can help them. You can be their light.
We need your help to fight for the light.
We all depend on real social interaction, community, and friendship. It gives us meaning. It gives us strength. It makes us who we are!
Your gift will help create community, even in these difficult times. Your donation helps make it possible. Like the Chanukah story of old, you can give them their light!
Until we reach our goal, every single dollar YOU give to Chabad at Cal Poly will be Tripled.
Together we are Stronger to meet the challenges we face! Whatever you give from the kindness of your heart during this critical time will go far beyond its own capacity well into 2022!
DONATE NOW AND SHARE THE LOVE WITH ALL YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY!
How It Works:
Thanks to our generous matchers, if you make a donation of $500 to this campaign, Chabad at Cal Poly will get $1,500. If you make a $360 donation, it will be worth $1,080. Any donation, no matter how big or small, will be Tripled!

About Chabad:
Chabad is an address every student can turn to for everything and anything! From a bowl of homemade chicken soup on a Friday night to an insightful discussion during the week, to a shoulder to lean on in a time of pain to a safe place amidst the craziness of college life. On a personal level, Rabbi Chaim & Miki Hilel are available 24/7 for counseling or just a welcoming friendly chat. Our students are not just friends, they are family. Our pledge is to touch the heart of every single Jewish student at Cal Poly, thus increasing their knowledge and commitment to the Jewish people and humanity.
