Our commitment to peace and partnership
In all our programs, we are committed to relationships with our local partners and churches — their needs guide our priorities.
As an Anabaptist organization, we strive to make peace part of everything we do. We work to distribute resources in ways that are equitable, meeting needs and building peace. In our advocacy work, we pursue policies that foster a more peaceful world.
Fundraising and reports
To support our work around the world, MCC raises funds from a wide variety of sources including:
- Donations from generous individuals, companies and churches (thank you!)
- MCC Thrift shops
- Special events like relief sales
- Donations of resources such as comforters and items for school, relief and hygiene kits
- Donations to MCC’s account at Canadian Foodgrains Bank (CFGB)

Memberships and Coalitions
MCC Canada is a member of the Canadian Centre for Christian Charities (CCCC) and a Registered Canadian Charity—you can view our annual charities return on the CRA website.
At MCC, we are committed to using your donations responsibly, making sure our programs are as effective as possible, and maintaining transparency in our reporting.
When you make a donation to a specific MCC program or theme, we do our best to use your gift for the cause you donated to. However, projects occasionally change for a variety of reasons or we may receive more money than needed for a specific project. In those cases, we use your donation for projects that are most similar to the cause or project you chose.
