"One of my main reasons for being here is knowing what the funds go towards, and that they help with MCC projects." — Olwen Pritchard

For more than three decades, Olwen has volunteered at the Bluffton Et Cetera Shop, supporting a mission that combines compassion, sustainability and community care.

Every donated item, every purchase and every volunteer hour helps create impact. Thank you to Olwen and all our MCC Thrift volunteers who help make that possible every day.

Thrifted finds don't always have to be used for their original purpose.
This rack could display plates or records, but it works just as well for colouring books. 🎨
We want to hear your ideas: how would you use this find?

🌏 Every purchase supports the relief, development and peace work of MCC around the globe.

A truck loaded with humanitarian supplies traveled from the Netherlands to Ukraine, where MCC partners will distribute essential items to people affected by war and displacement.

From hygiene supplies and blankets to canned food, this assistance will help meet the needs of approximately 24,000 people, including families who have been forced to leave their homes.

🤝Every donation, purchase and volunteer hour at MCC Thrift helps support local and global projects through MCC. Thank you for turning secondhand goods into meaningful impact around the world.

Some days, making a difference looks big.

Most days, it looks small.

Donating a bag of clothes. Shopping secondhand. Giving items a second life. ♻️

Simple actions add up.

Thanks for helping MCC Thrift turn everyday choices into community impact.

September 30 is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

Today, we pause to honour and remember the Survivors of residential schools, their families and communities, and the children who never came home. Every child matters. 🧡

MCC Thrift St. Catharines is hosted on the traditional lands of the Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee peoples, today the Six Nations and Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. This land is part of the Dish with One Spoon Wampum and the Between the Lakes Purchase (Treaty 3, 1792). We are grateful to live, work and gather on these lands.

Through MCC Ontario's Indigenous Neighbours team, we invite churches and individuals to learn alongside First Peoples so we can work together toward healing and justice.

Today, we invite you to join us in listening, learning and walking the path of reconciliation with humility. Visit the link in our bio for more information.
