The Alberta MCC Relief Sale in Coaldale!!!

100% OF SALES GO TO MCC FOR THEIR WORK AROUND THE WORLD!

Mennonite Central Committee volunteers hold a Relief Sale and Auction every year in Alberta. These sales rotate between Edmonton (Sherwood Park), Didsbury and Coaldale. This local event provides significant funds for MCC to carry out its work, specifically in three areas:

  1. Relief: Efforts provide emergency assistance such as tents, blankets, food and medical care after disasters such as earthquakes and tsunamis
  2. Development: Efforts provide capacity building, agricultural training, teachers, nurses and more
  3. Peace with Justice: Efforts provide advocacy, mediation, and skills training at the government, local, and family levels in peace building

In fiscal 2007, there were 56 countries with MCC personnel, MMC provided financial support to 70 countries, and 21 countries received material assistance and/or food assistance. Here in Alberta, MCC operates the Community Justice Ministries, Peace Education and Promotion as well as Mennonite Centre for Newcomers in Edmonton.

Join us on June 18-19, 2010 at the Coaldale Sportsplex.
