If you’re as passionate about helping the world as we are, why not join us? We will send four teams to Haiti this year alone. And every extra hand helps. If you loved serving when you were a student at MNU, why not continue that passion?
Current Project Needs
We value the work of all our partnering organizations. We always strive to develop long-term relationships with each one of them. This is why we also invite you to choose a volunteer opportunity to continue the work with past projects. Your time will help us to continue supporting these worthy organizations.
Native American Christian Academy (Formerly SVIS)Â
During the 2023 school year, our MNU Instrumental, Vocal, and Theatre Students focused on teaching music and theatre to Ecuadorian children and youth.
A special aspect of this trip was collecting new or used musical instruments to donate to the youth in Ecuador.Â
During the 2018-19 school year, our students, faculty and staff are supporting Hope Center KC, a non profit dedicated to providing asset-based programs and opportunities for sustainable growth and development where children, youth and families can flourish on Kansas City’s east side.
During the 2016-18 school years, our students, faculty and staff supported a new project in the rural Cascade Pichon region of Haiti.
In addition to regularly ministering to the children helped by the Kansas City Urban Youth Ministry, MNU students decided to make a financial difference in these children’s lives. Students worked to raise more than $8,300 during the 2011-2012 academic year. The money went to upgrade the Rosedale Ridge apartment complex, provide playground equipment, and purchase a van.
Proving that one person, one student, can make a difference, MNU students raised $35,000 during the 2010-2011 academic year for the Siaya, Kenya Orphanage. When MNU student, Jeb Flynn, spent a summer in Kenya, he proposed the university develop a plan to help. The money raised helped purchase land for housing, build sustainable gardens and provide ongoing mentorship for the children.
In 2009-2010 the idea was that posed that ‘if’ 1,000 faculty, staff and students each donated $25 per semester—less than $2 per week—what could they do for the world? As a community, MNU raised more than $50,000 that year. Partnering with Rotary International, Heart to Heart International and Engineers Without Borders KC, the village of Patanatic, Guatemala received a new health clinic.
