About Us
Luba and Bernard Friedman Base Loop is a home for students and their friends and the actual home of a rabbinic family committed to pluralism and founded on three core values: hospitality, learning, and service.
Rav Ezra and his wife Laura invite you and all Metro Chicago Hillel students into their beautiful home in the Loop to learn, volunteer, celebrate, and of course eat with them. Metro Chicago Hillel is fortunate to have the first Base in the country integrated into a campus Hillel.
Base is made possible through generous support from the Silverstein Family, Crown Family Philanthropies, Judy & Abel Friedman, Anonymous, and JUF’s Breakthrough Fund.
