Welcome Back!

Shalom y'all!

It's the beginning of a new school year and we are so excited to see everyone really soon! We have been working hard to come up with some really special events for JLSA this year.

The theme for this year is partnership. We will be partnering with other Jewish organizations in Richmond for social outings, community service events, and religious opportunities. We will be working with a variety of campus organizations to put on a Religion and Politics forum before the November elections. And we will be working with each other to make academic year 2012-2013 really special!

Let me introduce you to our board. Please feel free to contact any of us with ideas, questions, introductions, etc. We would love to hear from you!
