Mennonite Organizations and Institutions

The Mennonite Archives of Ontario includes records for a number of volunteer and service organizations. Many of these organizations may have originated from within or alongside the various church conferences. The largest of these organizations is Mennonite Central Committee.

Many programs, such as Victim-Offender Ministries, Ten Thousand Villages, Canadian Foodgrains Bank, Mennonite Mental Health Services, had their origin in MCC programs before being spun off as their own agencies.

Each Canadian province from Quebec west also has a provincial MCC office. The Mennonite Archives of Ontario is the official depository for Mennonite Central Committee Ontario.
