Jewish National Fund of Canada - Activities

When the JNF was founded, over 104 years ago, much of the ancient homeland of the Jewish people had deteriorated through centuries of neglect into a patchwork of quagmires

and arid land. Through its care for the land of Israel, the JNF has made it bloom again.

While the JNF spent its first 50 years purchasing land, the next 54 years were utilized to develop the land by planting trees, building reservoirs, developing infrastructure for housing, creating parks and recreation areas and helping settle immigrants.
