Service Opportunities: Reedley, California has many service opportunities through the Central California Mennonite Service
Center. This ministry consists of a Ten Thousand Villages store, a thrift shop and other related ministries.
Specific opportunities include working at the Ten Thousand Villages store (dusting, stocking shelves, pricing,
etc.). In the thrift store help is needed to sort, price donations and assist with small appliance donations.
The thrift store also has fabric and rug weaving departments. Volunteers can cut fabric, tie comforters,
assemble MCC kits, cut up denim, weave and tie rugs. For six weeks in the summer assistance is needed for
MCC's dried fruit program. The Fresno MCC relief sale is held the first weekend in April and could also
use volunteers.
Lodging: Accommodations are in homes with families and couples. If preferred, there are apartments to rent and
local hotels where volunteers may stay for the short term. There is also the possibility of RV hook-ups at a
local RV park.
