First $12,000 for MDS will be matched

Dear Friends, The #ExtraGive, Lancaster County's annual giving event in support of local organizations, is next Friday (Nov. 21) and Mennonite Disaster Service is participating. And, thanks to Summit Advisory and an anonymous donor, the first $12,000 given to MDS through the ExtraGive will be matched.  The compassion of donors like you makes it possible to offer comfort and hope to disaster survivors who would not otherwise have the means to recover. Last year 6,848 MDS volunteers gave their time, skills and compassion to build 79 new homes, complete 460 repairs, finish 378 cleanups, and build 9 new bridges for households who experienced a disaster. MDS continues to respond to damage from Hurricane Helene in North Carolina by building houses and private bridges. In the West, volunteers are building in response to wildfires in Maui and Washington state. Preparations are also underway to build houses in Southern California for people who lost their home to the Eaton Fire in January 2025. We are grateful for the support of ExtraGive donors to make this possible. Together we can be the hands and feet of Jesus to those affected by disaster!
