Projects
Touching lives and helping people regain faith and wholeness
Mennonite Disaster Service project locations are the physical response centers established by MDS in a disaster-affected community. In addition to housing the local MDS office, the projects function as base camps for MDS volunteers who need a place to eat and sleep while they serve. This section of the MDS website contains updated information about current MDS projects.
To volunteer, all short-term and all US volunteers call (800) 241-8111. Long-term volunteers in Canada call (866) 261-1274.
Bi-weekly Updates about the projects are sent out by Fax or E-mail. To receive the updates e-mail Communications and specify if you would like to receive the Update via e-mail or Fax.

Volunteer
MDS volunteers are known for repairing and rebuilding homes damaged by disasters. But it takes more than construction skills to serve with MDS. During the time that you serve as a volunteer, you will learn that MDS also restores lives.
Donate
Your contribution will help to connect volunteers with disaster survivors who need assistance on their path to recovery. MDS depends on the support of people who believe that disaster response is an important part of helping those who are in need.
