May 24, 2023 Greetings!Sunshine and warmth are here! As you make your plans for the beach and visiting family and having adventures, check in with Mennonite Disaster Service to add service to your summer! We love having you on board with us! Click here to see all the ways to volunteer with MDS. Family Program Opportunities!Are you looking for a way for the whole family to serve with MDS? We want that too! The MDS Family Program is running in June at the gorgeous Camp Palisades in Idaho! Volunteers will stay in A-Frame cabins, work all together on projects there at the Camp, and have free time to romp around the trails nearby. It’s the perfect way to work hard and play hard together, no age restrictions. There is still space for families the week of Jun 18-24! Call or email Alicia Hurst (800-241-8111 or ahurst@mds.org) to get signed up!
