Our Mission
The mission of Tried & True Thrift is to financially support the Church of the Brethren Global Food Initiative, the Mennonite Central Committee Health Fund, and Show Hope, an adoption support ministry, through the profits of selling donated items.
The Church of the Brethren Global Food Initiative - https://www.brethren.org/
is administered by the Church of the Brethren General Board. Its goals include fighting malnutrition and infant mortality, strengthening the livelihood of orphans and returning refugees, and bolstering the independence and self-worth of the poor.
The Mennonite Central Committee Health Fund - https://mcc.org/
works with local partners to improve the health and well-being of vulnerable people, including:
- Water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) projects
- Maternal and child health and nutrition
- Trauma healing and mental health
- Community health and disease prevention
Show Hope - https://showhope.org/
One of the primary barriers standing between waiting children and families is the cost associated with adoption.
Grants from Show Hope help break down that cost and have been a part of helping more than 8,600 children come home to the love, security, and permanency of a family.
