TALK ABOUT COMMITMENT ►
	TFC volunteers give an average of 1.5 hours a week towards community service, but comparing to some Toronto locals who have given 15 months and more to serve the greater Jewish community by joining the IDF was quite an eye opener. Besides hearing first -hand accounts from the battlefield, as an added bonus, teens had an opportunity to designate the soldiers as Captains in a grand paintballing exchange. View pictures.
