A meaningful way to make a difference.
Thrivent members can order Cause Kits to assemble and return—then they’re shipped to families and communities around the world. Barb and I spent time today assembling water filtration kits that help provide access to cleaner drinking water.

After we finished the first kit, Barb said, “I love this—everyone should be doing something like this to help the less fortunate.”

If you’d like to learn more about Thrivent member benefits—or explore ways we can support the causes you care about—feel free to reach out to me! I would be glad to share more with you about Thrivent!
