(add to parent circle page: Need to have soup delivered? If you have a child who is feeling under the weather and could use a nice hot bowl of homemade matzah ball soup, Hillel JUC staff will be happy to make a delivery to their residence hall room or on-campus residence when you contact the Chicken Soup Hotline.)

We understand how it feels to get a phone call from your sick child at school.

If your Jewish student is feeling under the weather and could use a nice hot bowl of homemade matzah ball soup, Hillel JUC staff will be happy to deliver a care package to their residence hall room or on-campus residence. The Chicken Soup Hotline is a way for Hillel JUC staff to meet and check in on Jewish students​. (Limited delivery is available to students who live off campus, or they may pick up soup at Hillel).

The Chicken Soup Hotline will be active on (non-holiday) weekdays until April 19th.

Thank you for your $36 donation which will support this service!

  • A reusable Hillel JUC tote bag, which holds:
