Jerusalem

The eternal capital of Israel and the Jewish People. Wherever Jews pray, they face Jerusalem.

 

Jewish Agency for Israel

During the 20th century, the Jewish Agency for Israel shaped the future of world Jewry and Israel. Together, the Jewish Agency was instrumental in establishing the State of Israel and in building the country's human and physical infrastructure. The Agency has brought millions of Jews to Israel, and is involved in Jewish education throughout the world.

 

Jewish National Fund

Founded in 1902, the Jewish National Fund (Keren Kayemet Le Yisrael) set its goal as redeeming the Land of Israel by purchasing land for Jewish settlement. Since the founding of the State of Israel, the JNF has planted forests, reclaimed natural resources, and educated towards conservation and ecology.
