DALLAS, June 11, 2024 — Thousands of proud American Zionists who share a deep connection to the land and people of Israel will unite in solidarity at Jewish National Fund-USA’s Global Conference for Israel for a weekend filled with camaraderie, inspiration, and riveting speakers who exemplify Israel’s positive contributions to the world.
The annual multi-day spectacular event, best known for showcasing the pride and beauty of Zionism, providing attendees with practical tools to be proactive rather than reactive when it comes to antisemitism, and sharing first-hand accounts about the realities on the ground in Israel, will take place November 14-17, 2024, in Dallas, Texas.

Attendees will hear insights from key thought leaders, explore an interactive Israel expo, take part in one of the largest Shabbat dinners in the world, hear what’s being done to support Jewish students on college campuses, and learn about initiatives that are already rebuilding Israel’s battered North and South.
"Our world changed on October 7, but if anything, we have become more resolute and more united as a people as we work to build a stronger Israel," said Conference Co-Chair Deb Zaluda. "Being in Israel on that day, and several times since, as well as being with the community here in the U.S., it is clear that personal connections, sharing stories, and coming together are more important now than ever. If there was ever a time for supporters of Israel to gather, now is that time.”

Together, we will stand loud and proud and celebrate the people of Israel and Jewish people everywhere – their grit, determination, and ingenuity as we gather in Dallas for this historic event.”
