Volunteer with MCC Appalachia Build
MCC Appalachia Build (formerly known as SWAP) is a home repair ministry in Appalachia. Volunteers help families make their homes safe, warm and dry, while building relationships and learning about Appalachia.
Kidron Material Resources Building Project
The new Material Resources Center will allow the Kidron, Ohio, community to increase the number of kits and comforters we currently collect. The 11,000 square foot building will consist of 4,200 square feet of warehouse, 4,200 square feet for a workroom and 2,600 square feet of administrative space.
MCC Great Lakes hosts relief sales, comforter bashes, storytelling events, meat canning and much more!
