    You might be wondering how it is you got on this e- mail list in the first place. Most likely, you have attended an event of ours in the past or you've been involved with Israel activism on your campus.

    The JCRC/Hillel Israel Initiative is a unique partnership of the JUF�s Jewish Community Relations Council and Hillels of Illinois. The goal of the program is to motivate and educate Illinois college students to promote support for Israel on campus and beyond. Throughout the academic year, The JCRC/Hillel Israel Initiative sponsors conferences, lectures, and Israeli speaker and cultural programs on campuses throughout the state of Illinois, as well as the University of Wisconsin at Madison.

    These programs are facilitated and executed with the help of the finest student activists on campus � our Israel Interns. The Initiative also provides scholarship opportunities for students with Illinois residency for Israel missions, as well as Israel-related conferences around the world.
