No matter your level of Jewish involvement or background, we’re sure you will feel right at home. We invite you to join our growing number of friends or rather, extended family. Come on over sometime. We are confident you will find your experience most rewarding. For more information, visit JewishJumbo.com.

Community of Faith, Exploration, and Engagement (COFFEE)

Tufts COFFEE (Community OF Faith Exploration and Engagement) is the interfaith student coalition at Tufts University with the goal of promoting constructive conversations about faith and identity between people of different backgrounds to promote action for peace and the common good. We aim to promote dialogue among those of varying identities and experiences (from devotional to nonreligious to philosophical) to facilitate the construction of pluralistic community. "Faith without action is empty," however, so COFFEE also seeks to connect students to social justice opportunities and organizations through activism. For more information join our COFEE Facebook group. Find contact information for student leaders here.

C. Stacey Woods

C. Stacey Woods Programming Board exists to promote spiritual engagement in community for all Tufts students through sponsoring and promoting InterVarsity programming on campus. This organization seeks to be the bridge between the Tufts community and InterVarsity Christian Fellowship/USA, a national student organization with ongoing student involvement since its founding in 1946. Vision Statement: We are a multiethnic, multicultural fellowship that trusts God, is unified in Christ, and rejoices in the Spirit. As we share God’s love, joy, and peace with the Tufts community and beyond, we long to see people of all identities welcomed into authentic relationships with God and one another. Every year, we host a few small groups to cater to the different needs of our community and a Large Group space for weekly games, worship, and talks. All students on campus are welcome to join us regardless of their faiths or religious backgrounds! For more information, check out our Facebook page.
