NFTY or the North American Federation of Temple Youth, is part of the youth division of the URJ, or Union for Reform Judaism. NFTY is the coolest way to meet other jewish teens. The events and retreats are so much fun and everyone should be a part of it. Everybody should come to convention in LOS ANGELES because it is going to be so much fun.
NFTY socal is by far the coolest region.
The NFTY cheer:
stomp-clap-stomp-clap...
Say what's your name? Say NFTY!

A feeling of extreme depression after NFTY events. Often causes anti-socialism and intense dissatisfaction with home-life and non-Jewish friends because nobody can understand how much fun you had.
After NFTY Convention '07, i had a severe case of nfty withdrawal and only wished to see my Jewish friends.
