Abstract
An interview with a Mennonite Central Committee volunteer at the Village Green Thrift Shop. An eighty-one year old volunteer, Eunice Stobbe, shares her experiences of volunteering on 20th Street, discussing her role in the Mennonite clothing thrift store, while reflecting on the importance and meaning of volunteering in her own life. She offers here her views on the Mennonite charitable mission, and focuses on the contribution of the thrift store to the well-being of 20th Street.
