M2W2 Office

There are times when our office gets really busy, and would really benefit from having some volunteers available who could help out with answering the phone, making photocopies, or stuffing envelopes. If you could serve in this capacity please email us at info@m2w2.com

Misson Workshop

Just recently the M2W2 board approved the purchase of a +/- 2000 square foot Industrial Warehouse (unit # 6 at 32851 London Ave Mission BC).  We were able to pay cash for this unit with the funds we had on hand from the sale of the Abbotsford, Hidden Treasures building.  Hence, the operating cost of this unit will be limited to the annual taxes, the strata fees and other limited costs, like heat and insurance. It is our belief that it will be a positive cash flow initiative very soon after opening.  But as importantly, it will be a great (very low barrier) volunteer opportunity and maybe an even better mentoring opportunity.
This location is very central to both our clients and our volunteer base as it sits just by the off ramp of the Abbotsford/Mission bridge. Not only is it within walking distance of the Starbucks and Tim Hortons at “The Junction” Mall it is also less then half a kilometer from the Mall’s transit hub. 

The intended use of this warehouse is to seek volunteers with Mechanical and Woodworking experience, as well as general labouring workers and start a workshop where these skills can be used to build and repair items to be sold to the public.  This mentoring lesson is what we witnessed at our Thrift Stores and with this initiative we lean into it much more heavily and deliberately.  The working name for this initiative is the:  

MISSION MENTORING WORKSHOP OR  “M2 WORKSHOP”  

We will not be getting clear possession of this space until Oct/Nov of this year, so we have some time to get our “ducks in a row”. Right now, we are looking for 3 volunteers: 

Someone with general mechanical ability -that can help set out a plan 

Someone with general woodworking ability – that can help build a small catalogue of saleable items  

Someone with general small office experience – to help set up systems for ordering, invoicing, scheduling, safety and advertising. 

If this intrigues, you and you’d like to help, or – have a question – a great idea – or would just like to chat about this initiative, feel free to contact one of us. In the meantime, lets continue to support this important ministry through our time, our prayers and our financial resources.
