JNF Missions are experiences unlike any other. In addition to visiting many of the cultural, religious and historical highlights of Israel, JNF Missions transcend the boundaries of a standard trip and provide participants with a deeper connection to the land and people of Israel.

Through exclusive meetings with high-profile political figures, government officials, top journalists, professional experts and others at the forefront of Israeli society, participants gain inside access to Israel’s top policy makers, opinion shapers and news makers. With access to many sites and places that most tourists are not allowed to visit, participants are guaranteed a unique experience and gain a new perspective on Israel. Parsons Sderot Water Reservoir

Furthermore, missions provide a tangible link to JNF’s work and accomplishments in Israel. Although people can learn about JNF’s projects, accomplishments and important work while they are at home, there is nothing like having people see it for themselves, first hand. Additionally, participants have the opportunity to meet the Israelis whose lives are touched by all of JNF’s work.

Overall, JNF Missions are intensely emotional, educational and spiritual experiences that provide participants with a lifetime of irreplaceable memories. Mission participants return home with a heightened sense of purpose, a deeper connection to the land and the people of Israel, a newfound understanding of what JNF has accomplished in the past 113 years and how JNF plans to continue its work in the future.
