Donations

The Kansas Mennonite Relief Sale is RUN on donations! In addition to pre-sale financial contributions that help us give 100% of our sale profits to Mennonite Central Committee,  donated items in the form of auction items and baked goods, etc. as well as the 1,000 volunteers that donate their time, help to make the KMRS successful year after year.

We appreciate all you do!

Donations for the Children’s Auction

Consider donating new, in-the-package, items to this year’s auction!

Talk with the youth in your church to see what items they would like to bid on, but you can never go wrong with Hot Wheels, Barbie, board games, Lego sets, art kits, and sports equipment. 

Items may be given to your MCC Liaison for delivery to Sale or they can be brought to the Pride of Kansas building on either Friday or on Saturday morning before 9:30.
Thank you!
