MitzVote,
powered by Hillel
Hillel International’s non-partisan initiative to provide Jewish college students with the education and resources they need to mobilize and vote in elections. Utilizing Jewish wisdom, Hillels on campus can support their students in civic education, activating their peers, voting, and celebrating their civic engagement.
Let Hillel Help You Make a Plan to Vote
Making your plan to vote can sometimes feel like applying to college — a bit tedious, daunting, and like you’re always missing something. But, like applying to college, the reward on the other side can be great. Not only will you feel accomplished, but you’ll be able to hold your head high knowing that you showed up and participated in your civic duties.
Hillel’s MitzVote team is here to help you make voting easier. Like a lot easier. We’ve teamed up with some awesome civic engagement organizations, and we’re excited to help you along your 2026 voting journey! You’ve got this.
