WI Conference Mission Motivation Committee will again be collecting items for Midwest Mission at Annual Conference. We are focusing on Personal Dignity Kits and Home Care Kits but appreciate any items found at midwestmission.org/kits. All items should be NEW – and all kits should have only the items requested. Thanks!
Midwest Distribution Center distributes the kits locally, nationally, and internationally to those in need during times of crisis. All supplies are given free of charge regardless of gender, race, or religion.
Midwest Mission is one of eight cooperating depots in the United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR) Supply Network. Midwest Mission distributes UMCOR supplies in response to disasters within the United States.
To process donations efficiently and get them where needed quickly, we ask for a list of the items donated. You can help the person who delivers the items -and save everyone some time- by filling out the Donation Form ahead of time.
Donations should be brought to Annual Conference at the KI Center in Green Bay. They can be dropped off at the Midwest Mission truck which will be located on Elm Street behind the KI Convention Center.
Volunteers will be on hand to load supplies: Friday, June 7th, 10am – 4pm & Saturday, June 8th, 8am – 4pm.
If you are not able to make it to Green Bay this year you can bring donations to one of the Collection Sites. We are also looking for churches who can get donations to Green Bay to volunteer to be Drop Off Sites for Ingathering. Gathered supplies should be dropped off by June 2nd at a drop site so they can get this to Green Bay for Annual Conference. Please contact the drop-off site in advance to arrange a time to deliver your supplies.
The local churches are encouraged to participate in the Ingathering during WI Annual Conference.
