SHABBATON: TWICE A YEAR HUNTER HILLEL TAKES STUDENTS ON A WEEKEND RETREAT TO CELEBRATE SHABBAT AS A COMMUNITY. THIS YEAR WE SPENT ONE WEEKEND IN NEW YORK CITY LEARNING ABOUT HOW SHABBAT IS CELEBRATED BY THE LOCAL COMMUNITY ON THE UPPER EAST SIDE. WE ALSO SPENT A WEEKEND AT THE ISABELLA RETREAT CENTER IN THE BERKSHIRES. THESE SHABBATONIM INCLUDE COMMUNAL MEALS, PRAYERS, REST AND REFLECTION, AS WELL AS INVALUABLE OPPORTUNITIES FOR OUR STUDENTS TO CONNECT. MOST STUDENTS AT HUNTER LIVE AT HOME AND RARELY HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO CELEBRATE SHABBAT OUTSIDE OF THEIR HOMES. SHABBATONS ALLOW THEM TO DO THIS WITH PEERS, WHILE ALSO FINDING RESPITE FROM THE BUSTLE OF THEIR WEEKS COMMUTING, LEARNING, WORKING, ETC.
Expenses $178,327

SOCIAL WORK AND WELLNESS PROGRAMMING: OUR SOCIAL WORK PROGRAMMING INCLUDES HAVING A FULL TIME SOCIAL WORKER ON OUR TEAM WORKING AS CASE MANAGER AND SUPPORTING SOCIAL WORK GRADUATE INTERNS, OVERSEEING OUR MENTAL HEALTH AND WELLNESS FUNDING AND PROGRAMS, FOOD INSECURITY SUPPORT, AND EVEN GROCERIES FOR OUR STUDENTS. THIS PROGRAMMING ENCOMPASSES MUCH OF WHAT WE DO, ENSURING THAT OUR STUDENTS' MASLOWS HIERARCHY OF NEEDS ARE MET WHILE THEY PARTICIPATE IN AND CO-CREATE JEWISH COMMUNITY ON CAMPUS.
Expenses $135,742
-
NOT SHABBAT SHABBAT (HOLIDAY PROGRAMMING): BECAUSE MOST OF OUR STUDENTS ARE COMMUTERS AND MANY KEEP SHABBAT AND HOLIDAYS TRADITIONALLY, THEY ARE UNABLE TO CELEBRATE SHABBAT TRADITIONALLY TOGETHER. WE HOST NOT SHABBAT ON CAMPUS ON THURSDAYS, INSTEAD OF THE TRADITIONAL FRIDAYS, AS AN OPPORTUNITY TO CREATE A FESTIVE ATMOSPHERE AND MEAL FOR STUDENTS TO CO-CREATE THE HOLIDAY, AND LEARN ABOUT THE DIVERSITY OF WAYS IN WHICH STUDENTS CAN CELEBRATE SHABBAT.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
