For the last 42 years JNF Edmonton supporters have been calling the Edmonton JNF office and more often than not they are greeted by Devorah Matkovcik.
After 42 years with JNF, Devorah will be retiring at the end of August and in honour of this milestone I would like to ask your help in contributing towards her favourite JNF partnered project, Save A Child’s Heart- acknowledging her dedication to JNF and Israel. Your donation is 100% tax deductible and would mean so much to Devorah as she is truly and sincerely a supporter of the Jewish people and Israel. Any amount will help and would be so meaningful to Devorah. Thank you in advance.
JNF is hiring a part time Administrator!
