IVEP Games

MCC's International Volunteer Exchange Program (IVEP) annually places nearly 70 young adults in Canadian and U.S. communities. These young adults are eager for a variety of experiences as they live and work in North America for one year.

 

Events like relief sales provide an opportunity for fun through international games. Contact the IVEP Program to discover IVEPers in your area who might enjoy helping you host international games in your children's activity center.
