SAUJS = South African Union of Jewish Students

The South African Union of Jewish Students (SAUJS ) is a non-profit organisation that looks after the needs of Jewish students in South Africa. Our projects are aimed at keeping Jewish students active and involved in South African and Jewish affairs.

SAUJS bases its beliefs around three pillars: South Africa, Zionism and Judiasm. South Africa for the country we live in, Judaism for the religion we follow, and Zionism for our support of Israel

We divide our manpower into five different portfolios: Social, Religious, Zionist, Political, Community.

Situated on campuses countrywide The South African Union of Jewish Students is a magnet for the finest and most active of the Jewish students whilst catering to, and accommodating the special religious needs of its members, SAUJS also promotes and encourages their direct involvement in the surrounding community.

Members have a heightened awareness of their position not only within South Africa but also their relationship with Israel and the Jewish world.

Our mission statement:

SAUJS, The South African Union of all Jewish students endeavors to protect the cultural, political and religious rights of all Jewish students.

We provide a forum for social interaction and community involvement. We also recognize the importance of Israel and its relevance to South African Jewish youth internationally.
