Mennonite Central Committee (MCC)
Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) is a relief, service, and peace agency of the North American Mennonite and Brethren in Christ churches. MCC reflects the biblical call to care for the hungry and thirsty, the stranger, the sick and those in prison.
Each year all over North America, thousands of volunteers come together to raise money which is distributed through MCC for the relief of suffering in the world. Over $5 million was raised in 2004 with 88% sent to the field. These festivals/auctions offer a little bit of everything - quilts, artwork, crafted woodwork, homemade foods, antiques and crafts. Often there is music and lots of fun activities for kids including an auction just for them.
