OVERVIEW
About Mennonite Central Committee Manitoba:
Mennonite Central Committee Manitoba is a 5-star, top-rated charity. It is financially transparent, has reasonable overhead costs, and an above-average results reporting grade of A-. The charity has a need for funding as its reserve funds can cover program and grant costs for only six months at the F2022 level.
Mennonite Central Committee Manitoba (MCC Manitoba) is a Christian charity that helps communities develop sustainably, provides disaster relief, and promotes justice and peace. It is one of the six provincial divisions of Mennonite Central Committee Canada (MCC Canada), which works with Mennonite Central Committee US to form MCC International (MCC). MCC Manitoba supports vulnerable people in Manitoba through Migration and Resettlement and other community development programs, as well as grants money to MCC Canada for use in international programming.
International Programming (MCC Canada): Granting to MCC Canada accounted for 84% of program and grant costs. MCC Manitoba granted MCC Canada $8.8m in F2022 for its sustainable development, disaster response, and peacebuilding work. MCC Canada worked on 496 projects in 45 countries during F2022. Its programs reached 925,662 people.
Local Programs (MCC Manitoba): Local programs accounted for 14% of MCC Manitoba's program spending in F2022. MCC Manitoba cooperates with local charities to prevent and respond to abuse, advocate for affordable housing, and promote positive changes in the lives of Indigenous Peoples. It also helps refugees enter and settle in Canada. In F2022, MCC Manitoba provided 9,697 comforters to those in need. It also provided 829 school kits and 100 hygiene kits. 220 people participated in peacebuilding events and workshops.
The remaining 2% of program and grant expenses were spent on Sam’s Place, a coffee shop in Winnipeg that provides employment to youth and young adults who face challenges as they enter the workforce. Program participants spent 12,000 hours in training.

Comments & Contact
Comments added by the Charity:
This comment was added by the charity to a previous profile update and thus may reflect outdated information.
Operating reserves are managed collaboratively across the MCC agencies in Canada. The operating reserve of a particular MCC entity, such as MCC Manitoba, is not necessarily reflective of the resources available to the agency at a given point in time. Across the MCC system in Canada, it is policy to target operating reserves to a minimum level of four (4) months of operating budget to a maximum level of six (6) months of operating budget. When particular regional MCC entities fall outside of these guidelines, transfers of equity may be negotiated.
