In our lifetime we have WITNESSED Jerusalem become the capital of the MODERN Jewish state and
HAVE had the privilege of witnessing the miracle of the reunification of the entire city. Since
statehood, the jewish national fund, israel’s leading environmental organization, has continued
protecting israel’s ecology and remains committed to sustainable development. the jnf is always
focusing on its important tasks of planting trees, establishing reservoirs, building roads,
draining swamps and dozens of other ways of preparing the land for useful habitation and
cultivation. Now the JNF is being asked for its assistance in the physical improvement of the old
city walls.
For centuries we were sustained by the prayer “Next year in Jerusalem”. now, the Jewish National
Fund of Canada in partnership with the Jerusalem Foundation will take on this unprecedented
opportunity to allow Canadians to link their name with Jerusalem, the city that embraces the
spirit of the Jewish people, past, present and future.
