“Rabbi G, his family, and the Maimonides program introduced me to a warm and welcoming community on campus. There is always an open invitation to converse or ask the questions I have about the complexities of Judaism. I'm so grateful for the positive Jewish community and experience I have gained through Maimonides. It has been so impactful to my time at UGA.”

It’s time for and this week we have Josh Cohen sharing with us why he loved the Poland trip. “Going on the trip to Poland with Rabbi Gelbtuch provided with a very valuable experience. I was able to learn about the difficult Jewish history of Poland while being surrounded by other Jewish students. The thought provoking conversations we had led to strong connections and appreciation for the opportunities we have living here. Poland taught me so much about Jewish history and inspired me to further appreciate and explore my Jewish identity.”
