Each year congregations collect coins in the months preceding the festival, showing how small change can make a big difference for people around the world. It’s a great way to involve children in the festival.

For our 30th sale, congregations and families are invited to participate in a special Penny Power Challenge that supports Mennonite Central Committee food projects. During the 30 days of September, your group can choose a goal and raise funds for:

  • 30 food shipments of MCC canned meat, dried soup mix, and dried apples to North Korea ($70 per shipment, total goal of $2,100)
  • 30 units of seeds for farmers in Nicaragua ($43 per unit, total goal of $1,290
  • 30 pairs of rabbits for Palestinian farmers ($24 per pair, total goal of $720)

Penny Power resources have been sent to each congregation, and more can be ordered or downloaded from MCC by clicking HERE.
