Join Us for the Ultimate Dodgeball Tournament and Make a Difference!

There’s never been a more meaningful time to give. As Rutgers students dodge, duck, and dive on the dodgeball court, they’re also building something far more lasting—a vibrant Jewish community on campus where learning, and connection continue to grow. And from wherever you are, you can help make that possible.

Your support makes it possible for Rabbi Matthew and Rebbetzin Yael Nitzanim to welcome students each week for uplifting Shabbat davening and meals, meaningful learning, and personal guidance. You help create a space where students feel supported, inspired, and confident as they grow into committed Jewish adults during this formative chapter of their lives.

Beyond the dodgeball court, your generosity is building Jewish roots that will stay with students long after graduation.

Be part of the fun.

Be part of the community.

Be part of Jewish life at Rutgers.

Event Details:

• When: Sunday 2/22 at 10am-1pm
• Where: Rutgers Hillel, 70 College Ave, New Brunswick, NJ 08901

Why Join the Tournament?

Playing dodgeball is exciting—but your participation means so much more. Every throw, dive, and catch helps support a thriving Jewish community at Rutgers, funding Shabbat dinners, holiday celebrations, educational programs, and meaningful student experiences. By joining, you’re not just chasing a win on the court—you’re helping secure a win for Jewish life on campus.
