Early on a gloomy Saturday morning in late May 2024, a group of eager Conrad Grebel University College students rolled up their sleeves and began spreading icing on hundreds of cream buns and long johns. Working tirelessly without stopping – not for the rain, not for friends who stopped by, and not even for a taste of the sweet treats – these students volunteered to work in the cream bun tent at the 2024 New Hamburg Mennonite Relief Sale. Alongside the capable team from Steinmann Mennonite Church, Grebel stepped in to help when the group who previously sold this delectable dessert was no longer able to do it. With buckets of icing and bags of buns, this volunteer opportunity brought together Grebel students, staff, and alumni, with the shared purpose of raising money for Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) initiatives.
