Caring enough to share…from one village to another.
Mission Statement of Care & Share/Ten Thousand Villages:
Care & Share Gift & Thrift Inc. of Archbold, supports both Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) and Ten Thousand Villages.
The money generated by the thrift merchandise is sent to MCC, which is a relief, service, community development and peace agency of North American Mennonite and Brethren in Christ churches. MCC shares God’s love through persons who serve those suffering from poverty, conflict, oppression and natural disaster. MCC strives for peace and justice for all people by sharing resources and faith in Jesus Christ.
Purchases from Ten Thousand Villages strive to provide vital, fair income to Third World people by marketing their handcrafts and telling their stories in North America. Ten Thousand Villages works with artisans who would otherwise be unemployed or under-employed, thus providing income which helps pay for food, education, health care or housing.
