The JNF Conference, like the JNF itself, is a chance to give of yourself and discover how much personal satisfaction you will reap in return.

\\n

The national edition of Radio Chavura is intended to build support for\\xa0the Jewish National Fund conference to be held in Denver from October 25th through October 28th. The conference will bring\\xa0together hundreds of committed Jewish leaders from across the United States to learn about JNF\'s ongoing work on behalf of the land and people of Israel. Those attending will also have the opportunity to meet and interact with committed volunteers of all ages, as well as to contribute their own ideas for enriching the work of JNF.
