Description
This initiative started on Canada's West Coast in 2001 and is now coordinated by a few individuals on the Great Plains. The key contact person is Aiden Enns who can be reached by using the contact form.
How is this campaign funded? This is a volunteer effort carried out by people who technically have more time because they won't be shopping this Christmas. Alas, woodworking and craft projects take time too… but life is more fresh and meaningful.
Buy Nothing Christmas is a national initiative started by Canadian Mennonites who offer a prophetic "no" to the patterns of over-consumption of middle-class North Americans. They are inviting Christians (and others) all over Canada to join a movement to de-commercialize Christmas and re-design a Christian lifestyle that is richer in meaning, smaller in impact upon the earth, and greater in giving to people less-privileged.
